The mighty Quinn brothers
descended on Montreal this past week.
Aidan Quinn and his brothers Paul and Declan chose Montreal to begin filming their
$13-million US movie This is My Father.
"It's the story of a man's search for his father's history. I'm playing the father in
flashbacks," explains Aidan, the star of such films as Michael Collins and Legends of
the Fall.
"The film is a semi-autobiographical journey for my brothers and me."
After a week's shooting in Montreal, the production moves to Ireland where the Quinn
brothers were born and raised.
Paul Quinn co-wrote the screenplay with Aidan and will direct. Declan, who worked on
Leaving Las Vegas, will act as the film's cinematographer.
The film also stars James Caan, Stephen Rea and John Cusack.
