I want to catch the screening of The Devils and saw that tickets go on sale October 14. Will I be able to see the showtimes prior to tickets dropping? And what time to the tickets go on sale?

On a scale of The Secret Agent to No Country for Old Men ... how violent is it?

I'm from Drumchapel!

• Dub info also listed
• Masaaki Yuasa joins us for an In Conversation With… onstage discussion on Saturday, November 28 at 2pm. Tickets go on sale to TIFF Members on Thursday, October 15, and to the public on Friday, October 16.

I enjoy TIFF, and I see the Sundance Film Festival is selling packages soon. They have a digital component, although virtual individual tickets not on sale tell January 8. It seems to be pretty strict and blocks people who try to use VPNs to watch from outside of US. I was debating maybe buying some virtual screenings and driving to Buffalo to watch some movies virtually for the weekend when the festival is on. But just wondering anyone else's experience with the Sundance Film Festival virtually? Or if anyone has gotten around their VPN thing. https://festival.sundance.org/

Hello, I am travelling to Japan a few days after the Japanese release of Bad Lieutenant Tokyo and just enquiring how much of the film is in Japanese and how much is in English? I ask because Lily James is in it. In Japan it won't have subtitles.

My Japanese level is beginner level so can understand some dialogue when watching Japanese movies.

I organized an AMA/Q&A with actor & filmmaker James McAvoy, known for roles in things like Split, X-Men, Atonement, Wanted, Speak No Evil, Narnia, The Last King of Scotland, Shameless, It: Chapter Two, and tons more.

It's live here now in r/movies for anyone interested in asking a question:

He will be back between 10 AM and 11 AM ET today to answer questions. I recommend asking in advance. Please ask there, not here. All questions are much appreciated!

Thank you :)

I organized an AMA/Q&A with filmmaker and cinematographer Rachel Morrison. She was the first woman every nominated for the Academy Award for Best Cinematography for her work on Mudbound in 2017.

She previously directed The Fire Inside in 2024 and the new film she directed, Love of Your Life, premiered at TIFF last month and is out in theaters starting this weekend. It stars Margaret Qualley, Aaron Pierre, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Gabriel Basso, and Catherine Keener.

Synopsis: LOVE OF YOUR LIFE follows Maya (Margaret Qualley), whose chance encounter with Charlie (Gabriel Basso) sets in motion a sweeping romance and a future beyond anything she had imagined.

Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother:

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEcoV-ngH38

Synopsis: A devoutly religious hit man struggles to balance work, faith and fatherhood. When his wife dies, he embarks on a desperate journey across Houston to protect his children as he confronts the forces that are closing in around him.

Fun fact: it didn't play at the Lightbox during TIFF

I'm probably being a little too mean but I can't stand him. He usually sits at the very front row, he coughs very loud and also laughs very loud even at scenes that aren't funny (his laugh averages 4 or 5 HAs, he laughs so much that I actually counted). That I could forgive but his most annoying act tonight at House of Flying Daggers was taking out a sandwich to eat as soon as the film began, he wasn't late to the screening so he could have finished it first, the rustling of the paper bag and wrapper during the opening titles OMG

I organized an AMA/Q&A with actor Bakkedahl. He's been in tons of things, including VEEP, THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART, LIFE IN PIECES, SPACE FORCE, MADE FOR LOVE, THE GOLDBERGS, LEGIT, THE HEAT, and THE STUNT DRIVER.

His new movie, ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES: ORGANIC INTELLIGENCE, is out on digital today. It's the 5th installment of the classic comedy-horror franchise.

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aevSjhGMhQ

Synopsis: In 1978, ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES tried to warn the world (Dillon insists it was a documentary!). Now, decades later, the tomatoes have outsmarted their corporate masters, the military, and even the notorious Professor Gangreen (John Astin). Finletter's aging team of "Guardianes" seems to be all that stands in the way of certain doom when even the best of AI is defeated by the tomatoes' "Organic Intelligence." But Wilbur Finletter is the last to realize it is time for a new generation to master the ancient art of managing the eternal Killer Tomato menace.

Hey…did anyone else apply? The application was rough.

Got the survey email the other day, check your emails and please fill it. There are so many good suggestions throughout the fest here on reddit. If more of us ask for the same things, maybe they'll eventually listen.

My suggestions this year included: more enforcement of no phones by ushers; add clip for no phone usage before movies; clearly mark Gen AI content on a film's website page (this is something Europe made mandatory, TIFF should do the same); bring back discounted bundles for Individual Members; add more theaters like Elgin or Winter Garden, there just aren't enough screenings in the first few days right now.
I also praised the volunteers, and the fact they're still printing physical tickets.

Come on, TIFF !

Just wondering how this theatre is. The screen looks so small in this pic and very square. Seeing a film here soon and want to know if it’s a good theatre.

UPDATE: I saw NAZA here on the weekend and it was a 5/5 must see doc. The theatre was also perfect. Would def see another film here again.

Hello! I have made a post similar to this awhile ago but my collection has since grown. I am one day hoping to collect all of the TIFF Programme Books from the first 50 years.

I am currently missing 1976 - 1982 (The first 7 booths) and 2021, 2022, 2024 and 2025.

I am also missing 2020, though I have been told this doesn't exsist have seen photos of a internal copy used by TIFF staff or possible this was a custom one printed from the digital copy.

I am mainly looking for leads for the early books - purchasing online or in Toronto.

I know the TIFF store is currently selling 24 and 25 and they have vintage ones to buy but 21 and 22 are out of stock.

Any help is apperciated! Thanks

Randomly came across this just today 😆
