In something of a first, every movie this week — with the exception of Official Secrets — was a festival baby, stretching all the way back to TIFF 2018. Weird, huh?
I mean, I’ve been up for days. Everything’s weird. If you’re up early, tune in to Metro Morning at 7:45 am to hear what that sounds like!
For Sama: A standout among the Syria documentaries. [Sam]
Freaks: Once it comes together, it’s fun.
The Goldfinch: No one likes this literary adaptation. [Glenn]
Hustlers: Based on a true exploitation story. [Rad]
Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool: He’ll play, then he’ll talk. Maybe. [Chaka]
Official Secrets: Knightley blows whistle; Matt Smith listens.
And that’s everything! TIFF wraps up on Sunday, so if you’re looking for things to see pick up the latest issue of NOW for our recommendations or just go diving into our master review database. I’ve filed 58 so far! That’s extremely unhealthy!
