It took little convincing to get Léa Seydoux on board to shoot her latest film It’s Only the End of the World. One could easily think that her response was a “me too” one, as the crème de la crème of French cinema were also cast: Marion Cotillard, Nathalie Baye, Vincent Cassel and Gaspard Ulliel. […]

Parker Posey was born to high kick in an armadillo costume. At least that’s what it looks like in her scenes as a bizarrely disguised cheerleader in Christopher Guest’s latest comedy, Mascots. The film, which is now available to stream on Netflix, is about a cult-ish group of grown men and women who pride themselves […]

Three films at TIFF this year have drool-worthy wardrobes that beg to be raided—and, possibly, rewarded for their greatness. Like movies such as Marie Antoinette and The Great Gatsby—flicks that won Oscars for best costume design, three potential contenders could take home an Academy Award for their fierce fashions.

What is TIFF without a parade of handsome men gracing us with their presence in The Six? One that fails to provide us with a feast for our eyes. Sure, all the leading ladies were dressed to the nines, but the men clearly held their own this year with their suave suits and nonchalant charm […]

The red carpets have rolled out, the champagne has been stocked and the camera’s charged – TIFF 2016 has officially begun and “the six” has transformed into nothing short of a celeb haven. Like most of us, celebs need to to find places to blow off some steam, grab a bite to eat or order […]

We love TIFF for its films, but like any other great awards shows, we’re equally enamoured by the style the stars flaunt. Whether the actors were attending their film premiere party or strutting their stuff on the Hudson’s Bay Striped Carpet, they pulled out all the stops. With Jennifer Connelly‘s sexy-sleek black zippered look and […]

It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to play an historic country figure. Ask actor Elizabeth Olsen, who took on the role of Audrey Williams in the new Hank Williams biopic I Saw the Light.
