Though we're only a couple days into this year's Toronto International Film Festival, a few of the
more high profile films have already screened ... and we have the photos to prove it. In the
gallery below, feel free to peruse through images from the red carpet for films like RocknRolla (Gerard Butler,
ladies?), Appaloosa,Me & Orson
Welles and Burn After
Reading. When you're done, head on over to our official TIFF '08 Hub for reviews on films
like Rachel Getting Married, Burn After Reading, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist and
more. Which film lit up Toronto at midnight ... and which veteran action star is poised for a major
comeback? Check it out ...
Cinematicalgoes to Cannes, so when
it comes time for the fall festivals, we mostly ignore the movies we've already covered there. But
since I didn't go to Cannes, the many holdovers from that festival are new to me, and a
big part of the fun. (Less fun: complaining about being conflicted out of a movie only to be met
with "oh, I saw that at Cannes." Thanks, jackass.)
One such holdover is the Dardenne brothers' very good Lorna's
Silence, an(other) study of guilt and self-deception. The Dardennes' approach can be
charitably termed "narrative economy," or less charitably "a pathological refusal to let important
events happen on screen." For that reason, Lorna's Silence plays like a mystery, except
that the mystery is what the hell is going on, with the filmmakers dropping tidbits of
information at their leisure. It's an unusual way of generating suspense - a bit tyrannical, but
also a recognition that real life generally does not contain expository dialogue. Though the film
contains plenty of conventional what-happens-next suspense as well, its nature makes virtually any
plot description a spoiler. If you like the Dardennes, or are just interested in the current art
film vanguard, don't read much about Lorna's Silence but just go see it. Sony Pictures
Classics will release it in North America.
As the director, co-screenwriter and star of Appaloosa, Ed Harris follows up
his Oscar-nominated work as an actor-director in 2000's Pollock with an adaptation of Robert B.
Parker's novel, revolving around two old friends and partners (Harris and Viggo Mortensen) in 1882
New Mexico trying to enforce the rule of law in a town threatened by a corrupt power-broker (Jeremy
Irons). Harris spoke with Cinematical in Toronto about working on Appaloosa, adapting
Parker's novel, co-starring opposite Mortensen and how hard it was to find financing for a
traditional Western like Appaloosa: "Pretty hard. I mean, it was very interesting; people
really responded to the script, and if the budget for it had been half of what it was, we probably
could have got it made pretty easily. ... But we needed the budget to serve the production values;
it called for that. I didn't want to make a little intimate art-house film. I wanted to make
something that respected the space that it took place in ... it deserves it; it calls for it; so,
it was pretty tough; it was a real battle."

Paris 36 tries to do a dozen different things, and does none of them well. But even
that description may not be harsh enough, because it makes the film sound ambitious. It's not.
Director Christophe Barratier, whose The
Chorus was a quality rendition of an age-old formula, doesn't even pretend to give much
thought to any of the disparate elements he assembles here. This is one of those middlebrow
period-piece comedies that mistakes frenzy for energy and spotless soundstage gloss for visual
style. It may play well with certain audiences for whom "arthouse" is synonymous with "no
explosions," but there's really nothing to see here.
Well, in theory there's a lot to see, including but not limited to the following: a would-be
portrait of the French Popular Front in the 1930's; the story of a bunch of unemployed workers
banding together to put on a show and save a historic theater; the tragedy of an old workhorse
(Gérard Jugnot) who loses custody of his
accordion prodigy son to his cheating wife when the theater first closes down; a romance between a
communist rabblerouser (and stagehand, and actor!) and a singing ingénue (Nora Arnezeder) taken under the wing of a fascist loan
shark (Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu); the spiritual
rebirth of an old orchestra conductor who has spent the last 20 years alone with his radio; a
no-talent comic (Kad Merad) who sinks to
performing for the Nazis after being booed off stage by everyone else, though he is of course much
too lovable to actually be an anti-Semite.
There's still an entire week left of this year's Toronto International Film Festival, and while
there are dozens of reviews to be written, we've got an early start. First, we've finally posted
our official review of Franck
Vestiel's sci-fi horror film Eden Log, which will be released
here in the States next year by Magnet Releasing. In addition to our review for Pascal Laugier's French
horror pic Martyrs, the
boys over at Twitch
Film have posted another raving review for the film that's guaranteed to be the talk of
Midnight Madness. Also added over at Twitch Film is a mixed/negative review of Fabrice Du Welz's
Vinyan (review here) and a
positive review of AJ Annilas Finnish "J-horror" pic Sauna (review here),
which was earlier blasted over at AICN. Click the links above for all of the reviews and watch for tons more
over the next week.

Während das Filmfestival von Venedig mehr und mehr an Glanz verliert, reichen sich Stars wie
Brad Pitt und George Clooney beim Toronto International Film Festival die Klinke in die Hand. Und
nicht nur der Stars wegen hat Toronto inzwischen die Nase vor dem italienischen Konkurrenten.
Long day tonight on about three hours sleep, but
somehow James and I managed to push through to make it to both the party for Richard Linklater's
film Me and Orson Welles and the Midnight Madness screening of Detroit Metal City.
The Orson Welles party was great by my personal film fest standards, which include
preferring not to be crushed in a crowd of starlet wannabes tottering in high heels. There was a
decent-sized, but not overwhelming crowd; appropriate, but not overly loud music; and tasty, but
not overly messy snacks being circulated on trays. The film's star, Zac Efron, was on hand, as
was Linklater. Geoffrey Rush was also there circulating around.
We had to ditch the party a bit early to allow time to grab a bite of dinner, then headed over to
the Ryerson; when Detroit Metal City director Toshio Lee and the film's star, popular
Japanese actor Ken'ichi Matsuyama, showed up, a pack of Japanese girls and women who'd been
allowed to gather to get an up close view went absolutely wild, screaming so loudly that a guy
passing by in front of the red carpet wondered aloud, "Who is it? Brad Pitt?"
Opposé à Andy Murray en demi-finale de l'US Open, Rafael Nadal sait à quel
adversaire il aura à faire. Le numéro 1 mondial a battu l'Ecossais à Wimbledon
et à Toronto cet été et à cinq reprises en tout en cinq rencontres.
L'Espagnol vise une première finale à Flushing Meadows.
Il a toujours ses petites lunettes et son regard intelligent. Dans un resto d'hôtel torontois
comme ailleurs, c'est toujours un plaisir de rencontrer Philippe Falardeau. Le réalisateur
de La Moitié gauche du frigo et de Congorama est notre cinéaste intello de
prédilection. Or voici qu'il lance à Toronto un film en mode classique, plus
émotif que cérébral, sans la caméra à l'épaule. On est
surpris... Suite
