TIFF 2013
With the Toronto International Film Festival in full swing, there’s an abundance of great coverage of the films coming in from around the web. The ever-exhaustive David Hudson at Keyframe does a superb job of collecting up-to-the-moment responses from critics, while some of the best festival coverage can be found at Cinema Scope, The Dissolve and The Notebook at MUBI.
Film.com, The AV Club, The Guardian and Slant’s The House Next Door are also there, among others, while The Seventh Art have a live interview stream set up. Of course, you can take the festival’s pulse the old-fashioned way: with a quick refresh of #TIFF13 on Twitter. Stay tuned for more updates.
Spike Jonze talks with The Guardian about his latest, the Joaquin Phoenix-Siri romance, Her.
Joe Dante is making a biopic of his former employer, legendary B-movie producer Roger Corman.
HitFix interviews an enthusiastic Hugh Jackman on Prisoners, his collaboration with Jake Gyllenhaal and Incendies director Denis Villeneuve.
Also from TIFF, The Playlist have a 10-minute conversation with Richard Ayoade about The Double [above], his acclaimed new film starring Jesse Eisenberg (times two) and Mia Wasikowska.
New York Times mainstays A.O. Scott and Manhola Dargis have compiled an interesting list of their 20 young directors to watch.
At the Los Angeles Times, Susan King has a chat to the pretty underrated John Badham, director of WarGames, Saturday Night Fever and 1979’s Dracula .
Enduring social network film site MUBI has launched an iPad app.
Over at Criterion, David Ehrenstein looks at the original La Cage aux Folles, which has just been released via the collection.
Some deeper New York film reading: the great J. Hoberman has a three part essay on New York films over at the Musuem of the Moving Image, while at Fandor, Mark Asch looks at New York neorealism.
Finally, via Dangerous Minds, a rather terrifying (and well done) reimagining of Monty Python and the Holy Grail as a generic modern action trailer. Enjoy.
