Today, more clips from the 2013 Toronto Film Festival: The Playlist talk to Steve McQueen (Hunger, Shame) about his latest, the already-Oscar-tipped 12 Years a Slave, including his thoughts on Tarantino’s Django Unchained.
Sundance has an interview with Blue is the Warmest Color actresses Adele Exarchopoulos and Lea Seydoux, talking the Palme d’Or winner now at TIFF.
Sticking briefly with Toronto, Vulture chats with a bemused David Cronenberg about the forthcoming hands-on exhibit of his films and their esoterica.
At In Contention, Guy Lodge has the details of the candidates for the European Film Awards — the continent’s Oscars — with some surprise inclusions such as Nicholas Winding Refn’s critically-reviled Only God Forgives.
With Venice 2013 wrapped, the festival has unleashed “Venezia 70 Future Reloaded,” their collection of 70 short films made by 70 filmmakers made in honour of the event’s 70th year. They’re all on the fest’s YouTube channel.
Some retrospectives:
The AV Club revisits Jonathan Demme’s killer 1988 comedy, Married to the Mob, with some well-due praise for Michelle Pfeiffer in burgeoning comedic form.
At Shadowplay, meanwhile, David Cairns looks at Minnelli’s wonderful Kismet.
And at Press Play, Matthew Cheney’s video essay wonders where to begin the daunting task of taking on the entire work of Rainer Werner Fassbinder. (Suggestion: As soon as possible?)
Finally, here’s the first trailer for the movie Disney most certainly don’t want you to see: Escape from Tomorrow, which was filmed entirely guerrilla-style inside Disneyland — and without the permission of the Mouse House. Let’s hope to see it released.
