Read MoreTIFF 2026 Review: Love of Your Life – “Rachel Morrison’s film was always going to be beautiful.”
“Grief is never finished” These words are spoken by Catherine Keener in Love of Your Life. And they resonated profoundly. Not to get too personal, but in the last year and a bit, grief has been a constant companion in my life. Loss is never easy, whether a parent, an aunt, an uncle or even a dog.

Living literally in the shadow of Everest, Tenzing Norgay as a child developed a deep affinity for the world’s tallest mountain which saw him years later accompany Edmund Hillary on the landmark 1953 expedition to conquer its summit for the first time.
