Toronto International Film Festival
It is held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in September and its
duration is ten days. The festival starts the Thursday after Labor Day or for
Canada the first Monday of September. Up to 400 flicks are premiered at different
venues in downtown Toronto on twenty-three screens. It’s an important film festival,
which began in 1976 at the Windsor Arms Hotel. Can’t you see people arriving in
classic limos? Can’t you see them driving up in style to this historic hotel?
According to Robert Ebert its just as great as Cannes, though the latter is bigger.
It has lessened its attention to independent films to a degree
because it has started to give more consideration to mainstream movies. In the
beginning it was a festival that showed films from other festivals held in various
countries. Through moneyed promotion by investors, organizers, and sponsors it has
become an important part of influencing people’s taste for Hollywood films, though
it still shows films from Asia, Africa, and South America. It still highlights cinema
from Canada and individual directors. The best way to highlight your arrival is in
an exceptional limo like a stretch.
This year it will be held from September 4th –September 13th.
Chris Knight writing in The Ampersand says that this year’s festival will begin with
a bang. He explains the opening-night movie is Passchendaele, which is situated in
Calgary in a military hospital and on WWI battlefields. The Canadians won a major
battle at the Third Battle of Ypres. Whether you are arriving at the premiere of
this fantastic historical love story or the other great films a limousine ride will
be luxurious and classy. You will arrive like the crème of the crop.
It is written and directed by Paul Gross and he stars in it.
The co-stars are Caroline Dhavernas, Joe Dinicol, and Gil Bellows. The director
wanted to make this film because of the stories about the war that his grandfather
told him.
In May the RBC became the official bank for the Toronto
International Film Festival Group. Jennifer Tory, the RBC’s Regional President of
the Toronto Region said that the TIFFG made a great contribution to Toronto’s economy.
You can make a big impression, when your cruise up to see the films in your limo.
That’s what a gorgeous limo can do for you. It also symbolizes
financial power that will be transferred to your image if you arrive in the right
car. You can see it in your mind’s eye and you know you like the grand idea of
arriving like the stars. Maybe you want to meet someone you can cut a deal with at
the film festival. After the show, you can invite this VIP out for a late dinner and
escort your prize to your limo to go to your destination.
It’s up to you, but you do want to put your best ride forward for
that date your taking to the Toronto International Film Festival. Don’t you? You got
one chance to make that important impression whether for business or personal
affairs. Make the right choice. It’s your future.
