25th Trip to the Toronto International Film Festival?

As the summer movie season winds down, the focus switches to the fall and the beginning of the cinematic frenzy known as the Oscar race. The traditional start of the search for Oscar worthy filmmaking begins at the Toronto International Film Festival, which I will be attending for the 25th time.?

Last week the official festival guest list was announced, and while there is no George Clooney or Brad Pitt this year, there are plenty of big names coming to town to support their movies. To name a few: Will Smith, Johnny Depp, Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jackie Chan, Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Bill Murray, Robert Redford, Ryan Gosling, Robert De Niro, Dennis Quaid, Jennifer Connelly, Billy Bob Thornton, Bradley Cooper, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Colin Firth, Kate Hudson, Kiefer Sutherland, Gwyneth Paltrow, Viggo Mortensen, Javier Bardem, Adam Sandler, Laura Linney, Keira Knightley, Mads Mikkelsen, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jennifer Lawrence, Julianne Moore, Terence Stamp and Vanessa Redgrave.?

The directors? list includes a first timer by the name of Dustin Hoffman, Joss Whedon, Neil Jordan, Barry Levinson, Ben Affleck, David O. Russell, Tom Tykwer, Lana Wachowski, Andy Wachowski and Rob Zombie.?

According to the TIFF fact sheet, the festival will present 372 films (289 features and 83 shorts), from 72 countries. I hope to see about 30 of them in nine days.?

Here is my list of the 10 movies I?m most excited about seeing.?

?

Looper ? This time travel sci-fi flick from director Rian Johnson and star Joseph Gordon-Levitt, will kick off the festival. I?m a big fan of their previous collaboration, Brick. The film also stars Bruce Willis, Emily Blunt, Paul Dano and Jeff Daniels.?

The Master ? Paul Thomas Anderson?s first movie since There Will Be Blood stars Philip Seymour Hoffman as the mysterious leader of a religious cult (inspired by Scientology?s L. Ron Hubbard) who takes a wayward man (Joaquin Phoenix) under his wing.?
