The Stunt Driver delivers a wild Mad Canadian epic for our Elbows Up era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Jay Baruchel, Ed Helms and Laurence Leboeuf It would have been easy to take a person as colourful as Canadian stunt driver Ken Carter and turn him into a caricature; something along the lines of an Adam McKay-Ricky Bobby number. But in making The Stunt Driver, writer-director Michael Dowse understands that the appeal of Carter’s story is his determination to chase the impossible dream. Dowse follows the example set by documentarian Robert Fortier, whose 1981 National Film Board produced
Ethan Hawke and Russell Crowe lean on old-fashioned Hollywood thrills in The Weight (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Written by Matthew Booi and Shelby Gaines Starring Ethan Hawke, Russell Crowe and Sam Hazeldine Since its world premiere at Sundance earlier this year, Padraic McKinley’s The Weight has earned favourable comparisons to other wilderness survival films, including William Friedkin’s 1977 retroactive hit Sorcerer and, to a lesser extent, Deliverance, John Boorman’s hit from 1972. While shared genre and subject matter has been the primary driver for such analysis, McKinley’s deft direction also finds
From scandal to celebration: David Cronenberg’s evolving legacy at TIFF (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the 51st Toronto International Film Festival takes over the city Sept. 10-20, this series of articles examines some of the Canadian directors whose lives and careers have been shaped by TIFF.

Practical Magic 2 is double, double toil and trouble (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Written by Akiva Goldsman, Georgia Pritchett and Kelly Marcel Starring Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman and Lee Pace Visit Salem, Mass., at any given time of the year these days and you’ll be met with a Disney-fied, witchcrafted New England city. Souvenir shops, haunted tour offerings and a variety of haphazardly curated museums dedicated to the Witch Trials overwhelm the main street and downtown core, giving the appearance of a witchy vibe. Conversely, the Salem of the late nineties – when Griffin
Inside Ridley Scott, there are two wolves, but neither really shows up for The Dog Stars (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starring Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin and Margaret Qualley The man who directed 1982’s Blade Runner would be the perfect candidate to adapt Peter Heller’s popular postapocalyptic novel The Dog Stars for the big screen. A story that offers a different approach to the genre by focusing on introspection requires the same meditative hand that brought Philip K. Dick’s ideas to cinematic life. The man who directed 2023’s Napoleon and 2024’s Gladiator II, though, he’s the one best suited to a loose adapta
