The Toronto Film Festival has only completed four days of its 11-day run, but with a typically front-loaded first weekend designed to accommodate the studios, buyers and press who will be heading home by mid-week or earlier, it’s safe to say that the meat of the festival has already been served.
In those four days, we’ve seen hot buzz movies (“12 Years a Slave,” “Gravity”), Hollywood royalty (Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock), TIFF royalty (David Cronenberg, Jason Reitman), big money deals (“Can a Song Save Your Life?”), sleepers (“The F Word”), parties and much more.
