It’s been a while, in our memory, since the last time it showed, which would imply that the fans in Toronto aren't as rabid as elsewhere, but we’d still recommend that you don't head along unless you’re very familiar with the film.

Fellow Torontoist contributor Alison Broverman is currently in Australia which has made the rest of us here at Torontoist HQ a little bummed out and on days like today, very jealous. Fortunately we get a bit of a consolation prize. The Australian Trade Commission has organized the first Australian Film Weekend. Australia's film scene, blessed by distance from the US and a supportive government has had a history of creating good work and of creating even better talent (Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, Geoffrey Rush, Mel Gibson, Heath Ledger, Eric Bana and then some). Sadly none of those big names will be around this weekend.
