Toronto International Film Festival 2011 Lineup

The 2011 program for the Toronto International Film Festival.
Notebook

News is rolling out of Toronto for this year's festival, with the Galas and the Special Presentations sections announced.  As always with TIFF, the sheer number of films can seem overwhelming, but with new films by David Cronenberg (A Dangerous Method, pictured above), Terence Davies (!), Francis Ford Coppola, Wang Xiaoshuai, Marjane Satrapi & Vincent Paronnaud, and William Friedkin added to big names that premiered already this year (including Almodóvar, Von Trier, Nanni Moretti, and Nicolas Winding Refn) it looks like the 2011 iteration will be as packed with must-see cinema as ever before.  We'll be updating this listing as new lineups are announced.  See TIFF's official website for details.
