We saw so many great movies directed by women at TIFF21 that we couldn't fit them all into one episode! Reporting post-festival, we get into Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog, Mia Hansen-Løve's Bergman Island, Betsy West & Julie Cohen's Julia, and Justine Bateman's Violet.
Meanwhile, if you've been wondering about the return of FONDAVISION, we're back on October 13 with the comedy classic 9 to 5.
We also want to say THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Wayne's World, our first screening back at the Revue Cinema. Our next IRL event is on October 27 & we're showing the essential Jennifer's Body. If you're in Toronto, you can get tickets here: https://bit.ly/2ZI1RlH
