TIFF15: Initial Galas and Special Presentation Highlights
The buzz has been building over the past few weeks for the 40th annual Toronto International Film Festival. My coverage of Fantasia caused to fall behind a bit on my usual pre-festival coverage, so I thought that I play catch up today and run down the films that have been announced in different programmes.

Listen to Me: The Dew Over, Episode Sixteen: 2002
This week I make my second appearance on The Dew Over podcast. This episode focuses on the 2002 Oscars, which was an episode that I particularly wanted to be on, since it gave me the opportunity to release twelve years of frustration over the Best Picture winner Chicago.

This was my first year attending Reel Asian and I can say that…
TIFF09: Wrap-Up

However, I do have to say last year had more enjoyable films for me. Here is my wrap up: Top Three Favourite Films Suck The Disappearance of Alice Creed The…
