- If Tiff were a person, they'd be There Will Be Blood's Daniel Plainview. The festival drains out festivals like Venice and Cannes - major suppliers of quality films, and North American audiences benefit tremendously getting a first op to see the latest from Jaco Van Dormael, Lars von Trier, Claire Denis, Michael Haneke and worth mentioning - the Locarno-winning She, A Chinese from the only filmmaker (Xiaolu Guo) who'll be presenting not one, but two films at Tiff this year. Mr.Nobody rightly receives a Special Presentations slot, it was filmed in some parts of Montreal and features Canuck Sarah Polley, and the masters section finally gets filled out including the latest from French auteur Francois Ozon (Le Refuge).

Toronto -- The Toronto International Film Festival on Thursday (August 20) unveiled its final selections, including international premieres for South Korean director Lee Hey-jun's "Castaway on the Moon" and Mike Sandejas' "If I Knew What You Said," from the Philippines.
And the Masters sidebar added the latest work by veteran auteurs Lars von Trier, Amos Gitai, Francois Ozon, Michael Haneke and Margarethe von Trotta.
Hey-jun's offbeat romantic drama will unspool as part of the Contemporary World Cinema sidebar, which added 34 titles as Toronto finalized a September slate that comprises 335 films from 64 Countries.
The Cwc program also booked international premieres for two Australian films, Rachel Perkins' "Bran Nue Dae" and Robert Conolly's "Balibo," Cesc Gay's "V.O.S.," from Spain, Italian director Giuseppe Capotondi's "The Double Hour" and Henrique Goldman's "Jean Charles," a British/Brazilian co-pro.
