That time of year again. The Toronto International Film Festival kicks off today. Opening the festival will be a screening of The Magnificent Seven, this evening. The festival runs from today through the 18th. This year's invasion by Hollywood and others has begun.

Cool. Looking forward to your updates on what films you've seen.

Check out Brimstone if you can- I'm in it!

Ok, in more detail, the filming was done in Eastern Europe, and the director is a famous Dutch director doing his first international film. As the film takes place in the Wild West, they needed Americans to do the voiceovers even for background characters, so I got to do very minor amounts.

I don't think I'll be going to any screenings this year. Price for a Gala screening (stars, director in attendance, possible Q and A or panel discussion) $56 , a regular screening $32. Magnificent Seven, did get good reviews. I heard somewhere the Stones may be in town for the screening of a doc about their recent Latin/ S. American tour ending with a concert in Havana. Oliver Stone will be giving a talk or a Q & A about Snowden.

Rommie, I took a quick glance at the festival's website, didn't see Brimstone listed.
