Universal Pictures Canada x Mr. Will want to give Readers in Toronto Wednesday, March 7, 2018 to see THOROUGHBREDS starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Olivia Cooke + the late Anton Yelchin.

Synopsis:
Childhood friends Lily and Amanda reconnect in suburban Connecticut after years of growing apart. Lily has turned into a polished, upper-class teenager, with a fancy boarding school on her transcript and a coveted internship on her resume; Amanda has developed a sharp wit and her own particular attitude, but all in the process of becoming a social outcast. Though they initially seem completely at odds, the pair bond over Lily’s contempt for her oppressive stepfather, Mark, and as their friendship grows, they begin to bring out one another’s most destructive tendencies. Their ambitions lead them to hire a local hustler, Tim, and take matters into their own hands to set their lives straight.

Synopsis

As three teenage girls wait for their father to finish putting bags into the trunk of their car, a strange man gets into the driver’s seat. His name is Kevin (James McAvoy) — a seriously mentally ill man with 23 personalities. He kidnaps the girls and shuts them away in a locked bunker. They quickly learn he has more than one identity when he shows up dressed as a woman, telling them, “Don’t worry. He knows what you’re here for. He knows he’s not allowed to touch you.”

Another of his personalities, Hedwig, says he’s nine years old. One of the sisters, Casey (Anya Taylor-Joy), realizes the only way they can get out is to convince one of Kevin‘s alter egos to let them go. She thinks maybe Hedwig will help, but he tells them, “He’s done awful things to people and he’ll do awful things to you.” They find out one of Kevin‘s personalities is a vicious psychopath called The Beast.

Meanwhile, Kevin‘s psychiatrist, Dr. Fletcher (Betty Buckley), who doesn’t know what he’s done, believes there is a submerged personality she hasn’t yet met who will materialize and dominate all the others.

Elevation Pictures + Mr. Will want to give Readers a chance to win horrific THE WITCH on Blu-ray Combo Pack!

Synopsis:
New England, 1630: William and Katherine lead a devout Christian life, homesteading on the edge of an impassible wilderness, with five children. When their newborn son mysteriously vanishes and their crops fail, the family begins to turn on one another. In his debut feature, writer/director Robert Eggers painstakingly designs an authentic re-creation of New England—generations before the 1692 trials in Salem—evoking the alluring and terrifying power of the timeless witch myth. Told through the eyes of Thomasin, the teenage daughter (in a star-making performance by Anya Taylor-Joy), and supported by haunting camera work and an ominous score, The Witch is a chilling portrait of a family unraveling within their own fears and anxieties, leaving them prey for an inescapable evil.

We’re into TIFF‘s final weekend and spotted a few notable names in the City today. Tomorrow the Closing Night Gala, Mr. Right will commence at both the Princess of Wales Theatre and Roy Thomson Hall and we expect to see both Sam Rockwell and Anna Kendrick out for that.

See who we saw today!

Julie Delpy. Making an extremely rare visit to the City today, Actor/Director/Writer Julie Delpy was spotted out in a foot cast. She tells me she broke her foot recently and being the trooper she is, that wasn’t enough to stop her from promoting her latest, Lolo. You know her best for hers, Ethan Hawke and Richard Linklater‘s Before Sunrise Trilogy.

Dany Boon. This French-Comedian also stars in Lolo opposite Delpy and was just charming and as he greeted fans earlier, he let them know he also was recording the interaction for a French program.

Anya Taylor-Joy. This up-and-coming Actress is outstanding in hotly-buzzed horror, The Witch. She tells me that she loves Toronto and actually filmed that Movie locally.

Robert Eggers. This talented Filmmaker makes his feature debut with The Witch, which (pardon the pun) has critics and audiences all talking.
