I really hope Elizabeth: The Golden Age has a gala premiere. The first one did back in '98. I don't care if it comes out in regular release a month later -- I want to watch it at TIFF and have Shekhar, Cate, and Geoffrey there in the same theatre as me!

The last two movies for Midnight Madness Programme are:

THE MOTHER OF TEARS Dario Argento, Italy/USA
Italian horror fans rejoice! The maestro of cinematic murder, Dario Argento, is back with the long-awaited conclusion of his The Three Mothers trilogy (SUSPIRIA and INFERNO were the first two films) with THE MOTHER OF TEARS. Archaeology student Sarah Mandy (Asia Argento, the director's daughter) opens an ancient urn that releases the demonic forces of a powerful witch. Havoc explodes in the streets of Rome as waves of suicide and violent crime herald the dark priestess' rebirth. The Age of Witches is at hand, but Sarah is the only one who can save the world from descending into a hellstorm of supernatural chaos. Also starring Udo Kier and Daria Nicolodi.

SUKIYAKI WESTERN DJANGO Takashi Miike, Japan
Tighten your saddlebags, load your revolvers and pack your chopsticks for cult cinema bad boy Takashi Miike's audacious wagon ride mash-up into the wild, wild east. A familiar spaghetti western premise that involves a mysterious stranger arriving into the middle of two clans feuding over hidden loot gets sliced and diced into new Americana-Kabuki-baroque fare: Buddhist temples sit alongside saloons, samurai swords hang from gun belts and sake flows with blood. Blue-eyed samurai Quentin Tarantino makes his first Japanese film appearance in Miike's first English language film. Starring Hideaki Ito, Koichi Sato, Yusuke Iseya, Yoshino Kimura, and Masanobu Ando.

Also announced are the movies for the Vanguard Programme:

PARANOID PARK Gus Van Sant, France
Alex (Gabe Nevins), a teenaged skateboarder, is at the centre of a criminal investigation after a security guard is killed near a skate park. Through non-linear fragments of action, voiced memories, skating scenes and Alex's inner conflict, his connection to the case is made clear. Like Van Sant's recent trilogy (GERRY, ELEPHANT and LAST DAYS) the sophisticated PARANOID PARK, based on the novel by Blake Nelson, is a provocative work about the human condition.

DÉFICIT Gael García Bernal, Mexico
Mexican star Gael García Bernal's compelling directorial debut is about a 20-something rich kid named Cristobal (Bernal) and a party he throws over a weekend. The clash between his and his younger sister's friends is comic and intense; class differences also reveal a unique social commentary on the state of Mexico.

CHRYSALIS Julien Leclercq, France
In Julien Leclercq's action feature debut, a lieutenant returns to the line of duty to hunt down a dangerous smuggler behind a series of murders, including his wife's own. The investigation leads him to a state-of-the-art clinic where memories are a precious and highly coveted commodity. Starring Albert Dupontel, Estelle Lefébure, Marie Guillard, Marthe Keller and Mélanie Thierry.

EX DRUMMER Koen Mortier, Belgium
Three disabled punk rockers find their perfect drummer in the uber-hip and arrogant author Dries, except for the fact that he can't actually play drums. Dries' unscrupulous behaviour sets off tension within the band, as family vendettas and personal disputes begin to jeopardize their fragile future. Set to a blood-soaked, sweat-drenched punk rock soundtrack, Koen Mortier's debut feature is as coarsely gruesome, sexually raunchy and blackly comic as the novel - by controversial writer Herman Brusselmans - on which it is based.

HELP ME EROS Lee Kang-sheng, Taiwan
From acclaimed actor Lee Kang-sheng comes a darkly comic and sexually daring tale that follows a young, penniless stock broker (Lee) who consoles himself with marijuana grown in his apartment closet. In his misery, he calls a suicide help line and falls for his counsellor, then sets a love triangle in motion when he projects his fantasy of her onto another girl who sells nuts at a nearby stall.

ME Rafa Cortés, Spain
The feature-directorial debut from Spain's Rafa Cortés, ME sees the writer-director musing on the place of his birth - the island of Majorca. When Hans (co-writer Alex Brendemühl) arrives in a small island town to take up work as a caretaker, his presence persistently invokes memories of the previous caretaker, also named Hans - memories that hang heavily over him as he searches and struggles to find an identity to call his own.

PING PONG PLAYA' Jessica Yu, USA
Streetwise swaggering Christopher "C-dub" Wang is a suburban guy who waxes political on all things Asian American and clings to pro basketball pipe dreams. But when misfortune strikes his family, C-dub must overcome living at home, working a dead-end job and his worldly older brother, to run his Mom's ping pong classes and defend the family's athletic dynasty.

XXY Lucía Puenzo, Argentina/Spain/France
Fifteen-year old Alex carries a heavy secret about her gender status and, at puberty, must make a decision one way or the other. But friends visiting from the family's former hometown with their 16-year-old son, Álvaro, and the inevitable attraction between teenagers, complicates matters.

Yeah. If you go to the Film Festival Website they have a section for press releases. If you search through them there are quite a few films listed. The new John Sayles is also going to be there. I have no idea what you will get with a festival experience package. If there is something you are really interested in seeing you can normally get a ticket in the rush line if you are willing to get there early. I've gone the last four years and it is a great experience.

Sweet, all these!

http://tiff07.ca/mediacentre/details.aspx?Id=473

SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS


THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES BY THE COWARD ROBERT FORD Andrew Dominik, USA
From filmmaker Andrew Dominik (CHOPPER) comes a film that delves into the private life and public exploits of America's most notorious outlaw. As the charismatic and unpredictable Jesse James (Brad Pitt) plans his next great robbery, he wages war on his enemies, who are trying to collect the reward money and glory riding on his capture. But the greatest threat to his life may ultimately come from those he trusts the most. Also starring Casey Affleck, Sam Shepard, Mary-Louise Parker, Paul Schneider, Jeremy Renner, Zooey Deschanel and Sam Rockwell.

ATONEMENT Joe Wright, UK
Based on the award-winning novel by Ian McEwan, ATONEMENT reunites director Joe Wright (PRIDE AND PREJUDICE) and actor Keira Knightley for another classic British romance - one that spans several decades. Thirteen-year-old fledgling writer Briony Tallis (Saoirse Ronan) irrevocably changes the course of several lives when she accuses Robbie Turner (James McAvoy of THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND), the man who loves her older sister Cecilia (Knightley), of a crime he did not commit. The film's cast includes Romola Garai and Vanessa Redgrave.

BATTLE IN SEATTLE Stuart Townsend, USA
Based on one of the most incendiary uprisings in a generation, BATTLE IN SEATTLE takes an in-depth look at the five days that rocked the world in 1999 as tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in protest of the World Trade Organization. What began as a peaceful protest quickly escalated into a full-scale riot and eventual State of Emergency, pitting unarmed protesters against the Seattle Police Department and the National Guard. Different points of view from a cross section of society are intertwined - from protesters and police to delegates and doctors - who intentionally or accidentally find themselves on the streets of Seattle on those last days of the millennium. The directorial debut from actor Stuart Townsend (who also wrote the film) features Andre Benjamin, Woody Harrelson, Joshua Jackson, Ray Liotta, Michelle Rodriguez, Channing Tatum and Charlize Theron.

I'M NOT THERE Todd Haynes, USA
From Academy Award™ nominated writer-director Todd Haynes (FAR FROM HEAVEN, VELVET GOLDMINE) comes an interwoven group of stories - each filmed in a distinct style - on the most influential musician of the 20th Century, Bob Dylan. Taking inspiration from his ever-changing career, I'M NOT THERE sees Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Richard Gere, Heath Ledger, Ben Whishaw and Marcus Carl Franklin as the embodiment of different 'Dylanesque' characters - expressions of Dylan's mercurial personality and his chameleon-like persona. Also starring Julianne Moore, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Bruce Greenwood and Michelle Williams.

IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH Paul Haggis, USA
From acclaimed Canadian writer/director Paul Haggis (CRASH) comes the story of a young soldier who goes missing upon returning to the U.S. from Iraq. When his war veteran father (Tommy Lee Jones) and his mother (Susan Sarandon) begin questioning the circumstances surrounding their son's mysterious disappearance, they embark on a journey to piece together their son's final days, enlisting the help of a police detective (Charlize Theron) to aid in the investigation. Also starring Jason Patric, Josh Brolin and James Franco.

INTO THE WILD Sean Penn, USA
Based on a true story documented by author Jon Krakauer in his bestselling novel, writer and director Sean Penn tells the tale of Christopher McCandless (Emile Hirsch), a young man who abandoned his possessions, gave his $24,000 savings to charity and hitchhiked to Alaska to live in the wilderness. Also starring Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, Jena Malone, Catherine Keener and Vince Vaughn.

MARGOT AT THE WEDDING Noah Baumbach, USA
Writer/director Noah Baumbach (THE SQUID AND THE WHALE, KICKING AND SCREAMING) brings to life a sharply observed portrait of a family in distress. After learning of her sister Pauline's (Jennifer Jason Leigh) plans to get married, Margot (Nicole Kidman) and her son leave New York City for the country in order to pay her a visit. Less than impressed by her sister's new fiancé (Jack Black), Margot's unabashed honesty compels the entire family to unleash their true feelings, forcibly coming to terms with the dysfunctional yet indispensable relationships that surround them.

THE SAVAGES Tamara Jenkins, USA
After drifting apart emotionally and geographically over the years, siblings Wendy (Laura Linney) and Jon (Philip Seymour Hoffman) must band together to care for an elderly parent (Philip Bosco) who has fallen ill. From filmmaker Tamara Jenkins (SLUMS OF BEVERLY HILLS) comes an irreverent and poignant story revolving around a modern American family and the all too common dilemma that ruptures their day-to-day lives.


awesome!

New Woody Allen to show at Toronto:

CASSANDRA'S DREAM Woody Allen, UK
Set in contemporary London, CASSANDRA'S DREAM is a powerful and thrilling story about two brothers (Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell) who are desperate to better their troubled lives. One is a chronic gambler up to his ears in debt; the other is a young man in love with a beautiful actress (newcomer Hayley Atwell) whom he has just recently met. Their lives gradually become entangled as a result of a sinister situation with intense and unfortunate results. Written and directed by Academy Award™ winner Woody Allen, the film also stars Tom Wilkinson and Sally Hawkins, and features an original score by Philip Glass. Produced by Letty Aronson, Stephen Tenenbaum and Gareth Wiley, CASSANDRA'S DREAM is an Iberville Productions Ltd production. The film is distributed in Canada by Christal Films Distribution and in the U.S. by The Weinstein Company.

So far I have seen these:

Rendition - Pretty run of the mill stuff. If you have seen Babel or Syriana you have seen this movie. Good, standard performances but nothing great. Great visuals though 3.5/5

Into the Wild - Incredible visuals and acting. Hirsch is the man. The soundtrack is phenomenal. One of the best endings I have seen in awhile. Must see. 5/5

Chachun son cinema - Pretty good collection of shorts about directors love for cinema. Inarritu's was by far the best. 4/5


The celebrities I have seen: George Clooney, Jake Gyllenhal, Reese Witherspoon, Peter Sarsgaard, Sean Penn, Gael Garcia Bernal, David Schwimmer, Gavin Hood, Hilary Duff, Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, Jena Malone, Catherine Keener, Kristen Stewart, Javier Bardem, Paul Scheider

Next Saturday: Before the Devil Knows Your Dead, Death-Defying Acts.

My first day through and I saw The Assassination of Jesse James (good idea, but man does it take its time getting there), Elizabeth: The Golden Age (the original was brilliant, this one is good, just not great) and Lars and the Real Girl (funny and sincere....thumbs up!)

The celebrity oogling seems weird to me...not that I haven't snapped a few pictures off myself...but I've felt dirty afterwards.

If anyone sees The Take, directed by Brad Furman and starring John Leguizamo, Tyrese Gibson, and Rosie Perez, I'd love to hear some thoughts. My brother-in-law served as the Medical Advisor on the film, and also had a small speaking role playing Leguizamo's psychiatrist (he and Furman have been friends since they were kids). Thanks.
