Toronto International Film Festival 2006: Twenty-Six Titles Announced
Yes, it’s that time of year again – the Toronto International Film Festival Group have begun revealing the films that will be showing at their 31st Annual Film Festival (this year running from September 7th-16th). If we remember, the opening gala will be The Journals of Knud Rasmussen (we don’t blame you, they announced it aaages ago) but they’ve now revealed their “Best of the International Film Circuit” selection (flicks that have already played at other festivals) and it’s a doozy. Here at Torotontoist Towers our picks have to be Palme d’Or winner The Wind that Shakes the Barley, Ken Loach’s portrayal of Ireland’s bid for independence in the 1920s, and Takashi Miike’s gay prison love drama/murder mystery Big Bang Love, Juvenile A. The full press release can be seen at the Toronto International Film Festival Group website.
