Toronto -- "Score: A Hockey Musical" is to open the Toronto International Film Festival on Sept. 9.
Fest organizers tapped Canadian director Michael McGowan's music-driven homage to hockey, toplined by Olivia Newton-John and Nelly Furtado as a hockey zealot, to kick off their 35th edition with a glitzy world premiere at Roy Thomson Hall.
The coming-of-age movie portrays a sheltered 17-year-old, played by newcomer Noah Reid, going from zero to hero on the ice in a matter of weeks. Think "Glee" with sticks and skates as hockey players croon while slapping a puck round an ice rink.
"Plan for a fun night on Sept. 9," festival co-director Cameron Bailey said after choosing the Canadian pop culture crowd-pleaser with 19 original songs woven into the movie's dialogue.
The announcement of the festival's 2010 opening-night film was suitably made Wednesday morning at the Hockey Hall of Fame in downtown Toronto.

The Man Booker prize winner has filmed a cameo appearance in forthcoming Canadian movie Score: A Hockey Musical
She's won the Man Booker prize for her fiction, been awarded 16 honorary degrees and fights on behalf of authors' rights as vice-president of International Pen. But Margaret Atwood has just completed what could be her toughest challenge yet: singing in a musical about ice hockey.

"Yes, I sang, shameless me," said Atwood on her blog, posting photographs from the film's ice-rink set. "We were all in an arena freezing our feet off [including] the star, Noah Reid, and the director, Mike McGowan, and Jody Colero,...
