Title emerges screen

This picture is enough to make anyone jealous. As the title emerges on the screen at the beginning of Changeling, it is followed by the line True Story. The van trundles down expressways and plain windswept roads, before it starts winding upwards. For some reason, producers drive horror movies into the ground with bad remakes and then try and bring the films back from the icky must-encrusted two-for-$1 VHS barrel. At 17, Shawna, who lives in Port Coquitlam, is out of school and learning job skills through the social services agency S. Remembering drug names need not be scary; repetition increases familiarity.
