Must See Films at The TIFF 09

I am planning to go to the Toronto International Film Festival this year, but I’m not entirely sure what films I should go see when I’m there. I’ve got a few in my mind, but I was wondering what others on this site might be looking forward to.

Anyway, here’s the link to the list so far: http://www.tiff.net/filmsandschedules/filmlist/default.aspx

Thanks again.

I believe Korine’s new film is entitled Trash Humpers, not Dumpers. But wow, I didn’t even know it was premiering at Toronto! That’s exciting.

Isn’t Une Catastrophe only a minute long?

Grey Daisies

Une catastrophe (Jean-Luc Godard, 2008)

Broken Embraces.
Une catastrophe.
Puccini Conservato.
Basically what everyone else said.

Harmony Korine returns to Gummo territory in this handheld video of a loser-gang cult-freak collective who do antisocial things in a non-narrative way, except for the song-and-dance numbers.

About Trash Humpers

I think it’s cool that no one- no one- knew he was even making this.
