Usually one of the world’s most massive movie showcases, this year’s TIFF was a scaled-down pandemic hybrid, taking place in both socially distanced screenings and virtually online. The awards wrapped up a muted Toronto International Film Festivalthat has unspooled over the past 10 days. The film, which stars Jamie Dornan, Judi Dench and Ciaran Hinds, will be released Nov. “Belfast,” which first premiered at the Telluride Film Festival, draws from Branagh’s own childhood in Belfast. Those include best-picture winners “12 Years a Slave,” “Green Book” and last year’s pick, Chloé Zhoe’s “Nomadland.”
The previous nine winners have all gone on to secure a best-picture Oscar nomination, as have 13 of the last 14 People’s Choice prizewinners. The festival’s top honor, voted on by festivalgoers at TIFF, is widely viewed as an Oscar harbinger. We will work with heightened enthusiasm and incredible passion, joining hands as we implement initiatives under our theme Exemplifying Excellence Through Sustainable Service, to inspire our communities and renew our efforts to be of service to all mankind.ĭr.Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical “Belfast,” a black-and-white family drama about the Northern Ireland city during the tumult of the late 1960s, on Saturday won the Toronto International Film Festival’s People’s Choice Award, a telling indicator of Academy Awards chances. The sorority’s past initiatives have changed the social and economic landscape of our nation, and we will continue to make a difference worldwide for decades to come.
