NIGHTBITCH: Ignore the terrible trailer, this is a fantastic showcase for Amy Adams, who gets her … meatiest … role since THE MASTER. Is Scoot McNairy the new Walton Goggins? Shares much more in common with THE SUBSTANCE than I think anyone anticipated. #TIFF24

HER PRIVATE HELL turns out to be our collective misery as Refn delivers flaccid piece of coffee-table fetishism, drenched in neon-slop aesthetic. Too dull to be future camp classic, too painful to be anything but endurance test. Kinda shocked it wasn’t booed off screen. #Cannes

Canada is sweeping the #Oscars so far, and all without a single, too-easy Heated Rivalry joke. KPOP’s Maggie Kang, GIRL WHO CRIED PEARLS’ Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski, and just now FRANKENSTEIN’s Jordan Samuel (makeup) and Cliona Furey (hairstyling).

HAMNET’s Chloé Zhao, alongside Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley, is leading the Roy Thomson Hall audience in a breathing exercise. The media section in the mezzanine isn’t having it. #TIFF50

So well-sourced word re: delay in adding PAPER TIGER to #Cannes lineup was Netflix wanted it, and was going to pay premium. But Cannes doesn’t deal with Netflix (for now), and Neon has theatrical wherewithal. James Gray has up-and-down history with Cannes, but it helped seal deal

“Thank you to our lawyers!” NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE wins Best Picture at the Canadian Screen Awards (something of a surprise given 40 ACRES’ dominance going into tonight), with the team also giving deserved shout-out to editors Curt Lobb and Bobby Upchurch.

While onstage to mark his film’s inclusion in TIFF’s Canada’s Top Ten program, THE THINGS YOU KILL director Alireza Khatami rips into TIFF’s programmers for rejecting his film from the fest itself (and after, in his words, paying $600 to rent a Lightbox screen to show it to them)

"No to war and Free Palestine," says Javier Bardem as he presents the #Oscar for Best International Film. (Took three hours and four minutes for someone to mention Palestine, and given THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB just lost to SENTIMENTAL VALUE, I'm going to wager it's the last?)

ALPHA: A+. Ducournau moves from Cronenberg to raiding tomb of Clive Barker (and dispensary of Aronofsky). Two amazingly hellish needle-drops, and more needles than SAW trap. So thoroughly intense a Palais attendee had a (medical?) emergency during relatively tame moment. #Cannes

Robert Downey Jr. is here, and certain members of the “press” section are going nuts. Oh, and we also got the first trailer — narrated by Thor, featuring return of Cap, with bits of X-Men, including Gambit — that nearly damn killed the folks in front of me. #CinemaCon

Big ovation (I’ll never time it) as UNSTOPPABLE’s real-life subject Anthony Robles embraces Jennifer Lopez at #TIFF24 world premiere, which erupted in several mid-film bursts of applause. The platonic ideal of conventional underdog sports dramas. I’ll place bet on People’s Choice

Huge standing ovation for NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW, whose #SXSW world premiere might have just seen a record for the highest number of times I cry-laughed. A *lot* to process, but this is going to slay Matt Johnson fans dead. (If they end up getting to see this version.)
