TIFF 2018: ‘Outlaw King’ film d’apertura, ‘Boy Erased’, ‘JT LeRoy’ e ‘Loro’ tra le aggiunte della selezione

Di Gabriele La Spina

In continuo aggiornamento la line-up del Toronto International Film Festival 2018 svela nuovi importanti titoli che si aggiungono all’altisonante selezione. Un periodo di completa dominazione per Netflix, che aprirà il festival canadese con Outlaw King, film che perpetua il connubio tra il servizio di streaming e il regista David Mackenzie dopo Hell or High Water.

Ma a sorprendere maggiormente è la presenza di Jeremiah Terminator LeRoy, biopic sulla figura della celebre scrittrice diretto da Justin Kelly, come film di chiusura; nel cast Kristen Stewart, Laura Dern, Diane Kruger e Jim Sturgess
Nella sezione Gala si aggiungono Green Book di Peter Farrelly, con Viggo Mortensen e Mahershala Ali; The Lie di Veena Sud. In Special Presentation troviamo invece 22 July, il ritorno di Paul Greengrass nelle sale; American Woman con Sienna Miller e Christina Hendricks, Baby di Liu Jie e Boy Erased di Joel Edgerton, con Nicole Kidman e Lucas Hedges. Sul fronte italiano spicca invece la presenza di Loro, versione unica del biopic di Paolo Sorrentino, nella sezione Masters.

Il Festival di Toronto avrà luogo dal 6 al 16 settembre.
