Toronto International Film Festival 2024
Film Inquiry spoke with Edward Berger, director of Conclave, for the Toronto International Film Festival.
Both The Assessment and Emilia Pérez demonstrate the versatility of a festival like TIFF, which is always inclusive of all genres and subgenres of cinema.
On this TIFF report, Kristy Strouse reviews The Mother and the Bear and Shepherds – two unforgettable films on a path to self discovery.
Both The Substance and The Last Showgirl evaluate mortality by leaning on their respective stars’ relationship with celebrity in real life.
Both TIFF films yearn to be more than what they actually are, but alas, gets stranded in a middle ground of mediocrity.
Conclave and We Live in Time are prime examples of solid filmmaking, that will likely be successful regardless of what accolades they end up garnering.
Wala has crafted a fine story, and impresses in his feature film debut with the TIFF film: Shook.
For his first report from Toronto International Film Festival, Wilson Kwong looks at two films based on true events.
