The Brave Films of Toronto International Film Festival

 

Five brave films have made TIFF stand out in a very particular way for me this year.  Usually I, among hordes of others, am busiest chasing down the next Academy Award contenders, the high priced U.S. acquisitions or the major sleeper of the festival.  Those films are repeatedly covered by the trades, and my Rights Roundup will keep a running talley on all announced pickups worldwide of all the films.  

These other brave films are the films which motivate our best filmmakers to create works of art in the first place of filmmaking on my charts...
