TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL REVIEWS

In the Valley of Elah
"One of the 78th Oscars clip montages was devoted to films about bigsocial and cultural issues, and when the clips were done and the cheering muted, host Jon Stewart gave a resigned smile to the camera and delivered a cruel, cutting, it's-funny-because-it's-true joke about Hollywood high-mindedness: " ... And none of those issues were ever a problem again." And that moment came to mind watching In the Valley of Elah ..."

Michael Clayton
"I walked out of Michael Clayton feeling something like 'let down,' although a brief examination of my expectations got to the root of the matter. Walking into Michael Clayton, I was hoping for a film along the lines of classic '70s Sidney Lumet or Alan J. Pakula; what I got was something more along the lines of an above-average '90s John Grisham adaptation ..."

The Jane Austen Book Club
"They say life imitates art; what they never tell you is that you don't get to choose the art. So it is for a group of Sacramento residents in Robin Swicord's film The Jane Austen Book Club, adapted for the screen from Karen Joy Fowler's novel. The Jane Austen Book Club (both film and entity) begins as a group of friends try to distract themselves from various personal crises ..."

TIFF DISPATCHES

James's Toronto Scene Report #1: The Morning After the Night Before the Day Before

"There's an old joke, funny because it's true:

How do you get a bunch of drunk Canadians out of your swimming pool?

You say 'Pardon me; would you drunk Canadians mind terribly getting out of the swimming pool?"

But this morning, at about 3:20 a.m., it became not funny because it was true ..."


Monika's Toronto Dispatch #1: Winter Gardens and Honking Trains

"It's Sunday night, I'm bleary-eyed, and I'm waiting for the mid-TIFF energy to kick in. It might seem strange, but I always find the beginning of a festival more exhausting than the end. ..."

Monika's Final TIFF Dispatch: Langella, the Human Tissue and 'Weirdsville' Invades

"Like any fun but exhausting activity, you're anxious for it to be over, but then you miss it when it is. In what seemed like a blink of the eye, TIFF 2007 has wrapped. Eastern Promises nabbed the People's Choice prize, and the wonderful My Winnipeg grabbed top Canadian honors ..."

Toronto Dispatch: Scott's Wanderings

"I'd hoped to write this dispatch a little earlier, because once a few days of the Toronto Film Festival have flown by, one finds it difficult to think back and remember things on a day-to-day basis. And since I don't enjoy doing difficult things, I'll just rattle through my memory banks and pull out a few highlights ..."
