Day Four of TIFF ’23 was epic! Though the excitement begins to reach a simmer in a day or two – when we actually will have time to start watching some more Films – we revel in the delight of all this starpower. I’ll be honest, I started off having lowered expectations, but I have yet to feel there’s been any lulls or dull moments yet this year. Still plenty enough to keep us busy.
Today started amazing, spotting Elliot Page and Hillary Baack out and about early with CLOSE TO YOU, a story about coming home as your authentic self.
Father-Daughter duo Ethan and Maya Hawke were out and about promoting the elder’s directorial effort WILDCAT and they brought along a commotion it seems everywhere they went!
Second try was a lot better with the younger Hawke! Along the way in this Album below, you’ll see other notable sightings including Simon Baker for LIMBO, Colman Domingo for SING SING, Sophie Nelisse, Charlie Plummer for NATIONAL ANTHEM and a group of TIFF ’23 Rising Stars!
Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn star in DADDIO and made quite the splash, drawing a huge crowd of fans outside TIFF BELL Lightbox for what was meant to be a low-key and quiet screening, opting against a big Red Carpet Gala. I am a huge fan of Johnson and was thrilled to see her again! So was beanie, fresh off her spa day!
Another action-packed day to come tomorrow!
