Read MoreTIFF 2026 Review: Love of Your Life – “Rachel Morrison’s film was always going to be beautiful.”

Read MoreTIFF 2026 Review: Bedford Park – “It does feel refreshingly honest and authentic”
Not every romance needs a meet-cute. Let’s call the meeting of Audrey (Moon Choi) and Eli (Son Sukku) a meet-ugly.
