No word if Kate will be making an appearance.  Keep your fingers crossed!

Charles Martin Smith will be in Vernon Friday along with the screening of his latest film, Stone of Destiny, at the Towne Theatre Friday.

Stone of Destiny, which was featured at the closing night gala at the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival, recounts the story of Ian Hamilton, a proud Scottish nationalist who secured a prominent place in his country’s history books by bringing the Stone of Destiny back home in the ‘50s.

Also known as the Stone of Scone, the Stone of Destiny had been used during the crowning of Scottish kings for more than a millennium.

Smith worked with an impressive cast on the film, including Charlie Cox (Casanova, Stardust) as Hamilton, as well as Kate Mara (Brokeback Mountain), Billy Boyd (The Lord of the Rings), Robert Carlyle (The Full Monty) and Brenda Fricker (My Left Foot).

Stone of Destiny screens Friday at 6:30 p.m. The film festival continues with screenings daily at the Towne Theatre until March 12.
