The second blank is an easy place to start, and refers to the film. The clue for the second blank is that the new film contained shots of Toronto landmarks… and… even the actor’s T-shirts, such as a Canadian coffee shop T-shirt and a Canadian indie-rock band shirt. The blank is relating the film to Canadian, and because the film contained a large amount of Canadian culture, the film was obviously Canadian. Use a word like “obviously” for the blank. Eliminate (E) and (F)— obscurely, cinematically— because they do not match “obviously,” and the correct answer for the second blank is (D), unreservedly. Now, look at the first blank, which also refers to the film. The clue for the first blank is what the film was to Canada, so use “homage” as a word for the first blank. Choices (A) and (B)— breach, dearth— can be eliminated, because they do not match “homage.” The correct answer for the first blank is (C), paean. The correct answer is (C) and (D).
