Today was a busy day for some of the smaller guilds with the Visual Effects Society, the Cinema Audio Society, and the Makeup and Hairstylists Guilds all announcing their nominations for 2013.
First, we have the Ves, whose main category to look at is “Outstanding Visual Effects in a Visual Effects-Driven Feature Motion Picture,” where we find Gravity and four other nominees that are just going to have to be happy with the fact that they got nominated. This is perhaps the easiest category to call in the entirety of awards season, and I don’t mean just here, but for the Oscar as well (Last year’s winner, Life of Pi, easily took this category before going on to claim the Oscar). It’s true that films like The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and Star Trek Into Darkness had outstanding effects as well, but nothing even came close to the amazing,...

I'm calling it now. Vanguard is the best program of the Toronto International Film festival 2010. Featuring titles from Romain Gavras, Adam Wingard, Sion Sono, Tatsuya Nakashima and more, this is exactly the sort of programming I was hoping for when the program was first created a few years back. Absolutely fantastic. Here are the announcements for both Visions and Vanguard.
Visions Programme
The Autobiography of Nicolae Ceausescu Andrei Ujica, Romania North American Premiere
Culled from one thousand hours of archival footage and four years in the making, this spellbinding epic montage unfolds as if from the memory of former Romanian ruler Nicolae Ceausescu, after his reign was brought to an abrupt and
tumultuous end in December 1989.
Brownian Movement Nanouk Leopold, The Netherlands/Germany/Belgium World Premiere
Acclaimed Dutch filmmaker Nanouk Leopold explores a young mother's desires and needs in this langorous and atmospheric film.

Tiff's edgy Vanguard section features the world premiere of Romain Gavras' Our Day Will Come featuring the scary looking Vincent Cassel (also at Tiff for Blakc Swan) and perhaps M.I.A's Born Free as part of the film's soundtrack. You've got the North American preems for Gregg Araki's Kaboom (Cannes Ff), Pia Marais' At Ellen’s Age (Locarno Ff), Sion Sono's Cold Fish (Venice Ff) and the well travelled Monsters from Gareth Edwards which receives it Canadian premiere via Magnet Pictures. Here's the rest of the line-up including a zombie film I have no intention in seeing. At Ellen’s Age Pia Marais, Germany North American Premiere A German flight attendant falls into increasingly bizarre adventures when she leaves her husband, quits her job and joins a radical group of animal activists. The Christening Marcin Wrona, Poland International Premiere Michal (Wojciech Zielinski) hopes to change his...
