Comment on TIFF 2023 Midnight Madness and Discovery Lineup: New Films from Harmony Korine, Patricia Arquette, and Larry Charles

"Sacred Fig" received the Special Award at Cannes this year, where it premiered following Rasoulof fleeing his home country of Iran in order to avoid a prison and flogging sentence.

Starkey stars in Luca Guadagnino's "Queer" alongside Daniel Craig, playing the object of his affection and infatuation.

In Craig's latest film, "Queer," he gets to explore topics he was more interested in tapping into than when he was playing 007.

Shifting from a feature-length to half-hour format required Duplass to seek out unexpected touchstones.

"Gladiator II" added to the $420 million haul, with close to record attendance for Thanksgiving. "Queer" is tops among new platform openers.

The same year Stone turned in an Academy Award nominated performance in Scorsese's "Casino," she also produced and starred in "The Quick and the Dead," bringing in Raimi as director and boosting his career.
