Grierson & Leitch

The surest sign that the summer movie season is over and that Movies Are About To Get Serious is the Toronto Film Festival, the biggest American film festival and the unofficial start of the Oscar season. Grierson is about to leave for his ninth straight festival, so he talks to Will about the festival's strengths and weaknesses, the best films he's seen at the festival and what he's looking forward to this year. But that's not all! In their Reboot section, they look at sci-fi futuristic thrillers, 1995's "Twelve Monkeys" and 1981's "Escape From New York." Terry Gilliam and John Carpenter, two men who have never been in either of our kitchens.
