Film Festivals

Film Festivals are a great way to find out what may be the next great movie.  Many enthusiastic movie goers (and library patrons!) are in the loop. 

The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) has announced some of its lineup for September 2011.

The U2 documentary, "From the Sky Down" opens the Festival.

Other highlights for the 11-day event include Brad Pitt's baseball tale "Moneyball;" George Clooney's political saga "The Ides of March;" Jennifer Garner, Hugh Jackman and Olivia Wilde's comic story "Butter;" and Keira Knightley's Sigmund Freud-Carl Jung drama "A Dangerous Method," with Viggo Mortensen and Michael Fassbender.

Since I am working an hour away from Toronto, many people from my community attend.  One of my former libraries, the Ajax Public Library, offers a film series in conjunction with its Friends group which features highlights from the past year's TIFF.

Do you attend Film Festivals?
