TIFF 2011. LIVE FROM THE GREEN ROOM – IT’S SATURDAY
How do you top Brangelina/Clooney/U2 Friday? With Canadiana Saturday. Cronenberg’s “A Dangerous Method” followed by Sarah Polley’s “Take this Waltz”…
TIFF 2011. LIVE FROM THE GREEN ROOM – IT’S OPENING NIGHT!
…The U2 doc, “From the Sky Down” was being screened, both at RTH and at the Elgin Theatre. And 2 of the 4 lads from Dublin were on hand to work the red carpet. And the stage.
Simon who?
I have fully embraced the new Idol. Sacrilege? Nope, if you’ve watched at all thus far, you’ll know it ain’t. Surprising, right? Like the rest of TV land, I was skeptical on hearing of Simon Cowell’s departure. There was even talk in our house of tuning out entirely. Until now, the show was all about Mr. Cowell. Sans Simon’s acerbic wit and nasty/funny comments, we’d have to focus on- gasp – the contestants.
THINK PINK
In case you hadn’t noticed – or had been living under a rock – it’s been a very Pink month. From staplers to mushrooms to cat food – it’s all about raising breast cancer awareness. Hell – even the NFL got in on the pink action. I happened to look up from my Words with […]
Geek Chic
So it was with great pleasure that I managed to catch not one, but two flicks in the past week. One set in high school, one set in university (ish). One an homage to 80’s teen flicks and one very NOW. And both made me incredibly grateful that I’m no longer a student. Easy A. The Social Network.

TIFF 2010. SPECIAL GUEST STAR BLOGGER
I have seen the future of TIFF and its name is Bruce Springsteen. Obviously I am not MOAM. I’m no Mother, but make no mistake: I am a Maven. It’s me, the special guest blogger – call me Mensch of all Mavens if you like. The arrival of Bruuuuuce put the TIFF in a tizzy […]
TIFF 2010. LIVE FROM THE GREENROOM: IT’S TUESDAY
A funny thing happened on the way to the Green Room….They stopped everyone from going inside. EVERYONE. No photos. No hangers on. No nothing. Why? Because the star of a documentary, here to do press for the film, about him, vanted to be alone. Not Brangelina. Not a Royal or any other visiting dignitary. Not Bill Gates. No, they closed the Green Room for…. Bruce Springsteen.
TIFF 2010. LIVE FROM THE GREEN ROOM. IT’S MONDAY.
POTICHE, which is Francais for Trophy Wife. And then there’s BLACK SWAN. Intense…and beyond.
