Greetings from Toronto — Rough Cut is back at #TIFF24! Follow along here, on the site, and on @letterboxd for our thoughts on this year's festival slate.
THE SUBSTANCE: Frenetic, bordering on exhausting, but also bold, vivid, and hilariously gross. One never loses the sense that Coralie Fargeat has anything but complete control over tone and scope; one to see with a crowd just to hear the shrieks of disgust and delight. #TIFF24
40 ACRES: A confident and exciting debut, this tension-filled post-apocalyptic thriller feels thematically fresh without being too didactic — a jolt of life in a genre that regularly teeters on the edge of oversaturation. #TIFF24
Our wrap-up of #TIFF23 starts here, with an initial rundown of a wide variety of the festival's offerings. Read now on the site!

THE END WE START FROM: Often feels a touch too meandering, but lyrical editing and composition, along with a moving central performance from Jodie Comer make for a compelling feature debut.
