To be honest, most years around this time, I’m bummed I won’t
be at the Toronto International Film Festival (or Fantastic Fest for that
matter). Money, time, day job, blah, blah, blah. While any number of future
awards contenders usually show up at TIFF, it also skews heavily towards the genres
and types of grim fare I favor. And this year, holy crap, I really wish I was
there to see Five Fingers for Marseilles, a spare, gritty,
lovely modern South African western. Check out the trailer below and tell me
you’re not into this.
