Whether they've already debuted at Venice, Telluride or Harvey Weinstein's movie grotto (face it, he must have one) these are the films that have to be seen at Toronto to consider your attendance a success.

One thing exceedingly helpful about Telluride sneaking some of these films out early is that you get advanced word on works with big, fat question marks behind them. Philomena formerly had such punctu…
Another stellar cast led by an Oscar-winning director who has also written the script. Since Haggis also did the adaptation for Million Dollar Baby and Casino Royale, this is a must-see even if any pl…
It's hard not to include half of the TIFF Docs on a "Most Anticipated" list this year (and more are on my "Most UN-Anticipated"). However, if they were going to make me choose just…
