Toronto International Film Festival: Day 5

Some random thoughts:

Orlando Bloom is entirely too popular for his own good. Susan Sarandon looks great. Joe Wright, the director of Pride and Prejudice is both adorable and very funny. Cameron Crowe, director of Elizabethtown is neither adorable or funny. Liza Minelli is short. When the Taste of Toronto Food Festival is taking place right next to where you are waiting in line for 3 hours, suddenly, waiting in line for 3 hours does not seem so bad. Bono looks quite comfortable wandering the streets of Toronto without an entourage. Sometimes it is better to be the second to last person let in from the Rush line than to actually get tickets. Colin Firth is not the best Mr. Darcy ever. When you see a drunk girl on the street car at 1 am and they are hiccupping so badly that their entire body shakes, you know that it is only a matter of time before they yak. Ray Liotta is tall. Vincent Pastore from the Sopranos has a large head. Orlando Bloom can actually do more than wield a sword and kill pirates. When trying to get her attention, some people choose to scream "Donna" as opposed to "Ma"donna. Tall people should let short people go in front of them on the red carpet so that everyone can have a chance to see. Jedi Mind Tricks work when attempting to be among the last 10 people let in to see a movie. Keira Knightly is very, very thin.

For roomie's take on the movies themselves, head to her blog... she is a much better at that sort of thing than I am...

Stay tuned for updates from the TIFF... BP style!

Lucky lucky you!

You are making me consider jetting to the Fest tomorrow to at least be outside the Walk the Line premiere. Depends on work I guess. And whether or not the fest web site I was perusing was actually right on date and time.

Keep the updates coming!

Pappy,

Thanks for the unsolicted comment. My thoughts are quite frequently boring so feel free to not read them.
