Aug. 27th, 2003 11:35 amI want to go see some films at the TIFF. But the question is what to see. I'm really, really tempted by the 1919 In God's Country.... It's (to my knowledge) Canada's first extant film.
Of course, there are two films starring Colin Firth showing.. one is showing as a Gala, which means he'll actually be on the stage for all of about 2 minutes to introduce the film before he goes back to chow down on expensive catered food and drink while we plebes watch the movie.
The only other film I've been to at the Festival was also a gala.. From Hell, on Sept 10, 2001. If I had the night to live over, I wouldn't have seen the film.
Hrm.. so I think i'll call Joel and ask his advice.....
