TIFF Stuff
It's done! If you're passing through Pearson Terminal 3 on your way into town, check out the Toronto on Film display (curated by Steve Gravestock and Amy Butoiske) I helped create for TIFF:


Meanwhile, some years you're up and some years you're down. This is looking like an 'up' year at TIFF. The two films I worked on this year are generating some serious pre-fest buzz:
A panel in today's Toronto Star ranked Leslie, My Name is Evil as one of the top 10 buzzworthy flicks at this year's festival.
NOW also gave the film a positive review:
Uninterested in subtlety, Harkema draws a bold and provocative comparison between proud, Bible-thumping Americans during the Vietnam War and the Charles Manson family. ... With his usual graphics-laden and montage-happy visual flair, Harkema gleefully pokes holes in the obsessive beliefs of middle-class Americans and their hippie counterparts, not in an insensitive way.
Passenger Side continues its run as 'the little movie that could' and the good reviews continue to pile up.
NOW gave it a glowing notice:
It's like a Richard Linklater movie from the mid-1990s: very little happens, and that's sort of the point. The conversation is engaging, the two leads snap instantly into the relaxed but guarded vibe of lifelong adversaries, and the script parcels out little bits of information as needed.
