Still
haven’t been able to make it to TIFF, on my radar in the next few years, but
Indie Wire has put out a thorough, comprehensive review of all the important
films shown. On page 2 of the article
there is a grade ranking of both premieres and films that were at TIFF but
premiered elsewhere.
A few of the films that jump out: ‘The Place
Beyond the Pines’ (directed by Cianfrance, see ‘Blue Valentine’), ‘Silver
Linings Playbook’ (David O. Russel pic, see ‘The Fighter’), ‘Looper’ (sitting
at 100% on RT currently), ‘Anna Karenina’ (Knightley teams up with ‘Pride and
Prejudice’ and ‘Atonement’ director Joe Wright), ‘End of Watch’ (cop drama
dropping this weekend with Gyllenhaal, received low grade), ‘Cloud Atlas’
(Hanks, low grade as well), ‘Argo’ (Affleck pic, was at TFF), ‘The Sessions’
(Oscar potential), ‘Rust and Bone’ ‘Amour’ ‘Hyde Park on Hudson’ ‘Frances Ha’ ‘Ginger
and Rosa’ ‘The Sapphires’ (all at TFF).
I
have seen a couple of these at TFF and some are opening wide within the next
few weeks, reviews to come. This
weekend; ‘End of Watch’, ‘Dredd’, and ‘Trouble with the Curve’ all release
wide, doubt much Oscar clout will be present but stranger things have happened.
