By all accounts, Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire was one of the most striking films of this year's TIFF (so striking, in fact, that Roger Ebert was literally hit on the head during a screening) and has been announced as the winner of this year's People's Choice Award. As a result, if you head down to the Elgin Theatre for 7 p.m., you might be able to grab tickets (provided on a first-come, first-served basis; one ticket per person) for a free screening of Slumdog Millionaire there at 9 p.m. There's more info at the TIFF website, and if you're one of the many people who balk at the ticket prices each year this is probably your best bet (and last chance!) to see a film before we all forget about the festival again for another year.
