Toronto native Sarah Polley is a director's actor - expressive, daring, gifted and less motivated by potential box office glory than by quality stories told well. As an activist, actor and director, Polley - possibly still best known for her role as Sara Stanley in the TV series Road to Avonlea (well, if you're asking my grandma) - throws her heart and soul into every endeavor. And while her artistically driven film choices have so far won her much praise and a faithful following, one suspects the best is yet to come.
