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.

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.
