Field Sketches is a personal film that grew from Director/Writer/Producer Carl Bessai's filmmaking journey. After a life of making films, what matters most to a person? Carl, a long-time resident of Toronto now based in Vancouver, BC, sharing time between Toronto and Los Angeles, is thrilled to bring his twentieth film to Toronto. Nine of Carl's feature films have screened at TIFF, including Johnny, Lola, Emile, Unnatural & Accidental, Normal, Mothers & Daughters, Cole, Repeaters and Sisters & Brothers. Former TIFF programmer Steve Gravestock will be the talk-back host for the Q&A after the film. Field Sketches Toronto Theatrical Premiere at the Revue Cinema will screen on Wednesday, June 11th, 2025, at 6:45 PM with the cast and director in attendance. Peter (Vincent Gale), a middle-aged architect whose business and personal life are imploding, has been trying to return to his creative roots as an architect. His successful partnership with his college friend Bruce (David Cubitt) has left him feeling like he can no longer find the art in his creative practice. With nothing left to hold him in the city, Peter decides to move to his family farm and spend the winter in Saskatchewan. He soon discovers that pioneer life is much more than he bargained for. And the silence and loneliness play tricks on his imagination. Carl Bessai is a writer/director/producer/cinematographer based in Vancouver, BC, Toronto and Los Angeles, California. His feature films have appeared in numerous festivals, including Sundance, Berlin, and Toronto, have been released worldwide, and have won numerous critics' prizes, jury prizes, and film awards. He has directed some of the world's leading acting talent, including Sir Ian McKellen (Emile, Lord of the Rings, X-Men), Carrie Ann Moss (Normal, The Matrix Films), Bruce Greenwood (Rehearsal, Star Trek), Tantoo Cardinal (Mothers&Daughters, Dances with Wolves), and Bruce Dern (The Lears, Nebraska).

This week on No More Late Fees, Jackie and Danielle dive headfirst into the academic fever dream that is The Curve (aka Dead Man's Curve)—a 1998 thriller where the only thing deadlier than a roommate is the GPA curve. It's Lillard Mayhem month, and Matthew Lillard does not disappoint—serving up pure chaos with a side of rat poison and tequila. The ladies try to untangle a plot that involves murder for grades, pregnancy tests, and enough homoerotic tension to fill a dorm fridge. Add in Carrie Russell's pre-Felicity hair and Michael Vartan's aggressively beige acting, and you've got a Sundance-selected mystery that somehow makes less sense the more you pay attention.·Season 5 Episode 6·—No More Late Fees https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com909-601-NMLF (6653)—Follow Us on Social:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nomorelatefees TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nomorelatefees Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/nomorelatefeesYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@nomorelatefees Twitterhttps://x.com/NoMoreLateFees —CONQUERingmyconquering.com10% Off Code: JACKIE10

De maneira bastante surpreendente, o primeiro V/H/S fez sua estreia no Festival Internacional de Sundance, em 2012. Produzido de maneira independente em 5 segmentos de antologia costurados pela saga de um grupo de ladrões que encontra fitas de V/H/S amaldiçoadas, o filme foi um relativo sucesso de crítica e público. Entre seus pontos positivos, destacaram-se principalmente seu uso criativo do found footage e a produção semi-independente dos diretores e roteiristas de cada segmento que compõem a antologia. Depois de uma sequência bem sucedida em 2013 e da quase morte da franquia nas mãos do terrível Viral (2014), V/H/S foi ressuscitada pela Shudder, que desde 2021 já produziu e disponibilizou 4 filmes da franquia, todos bem recebidos. Aproveitando o lançamento do oitavo capítulo, previsto ainda para este ano, comentamos todos os 7 filmes e destacamos nossos segmentos favoritos, bem como aqueles em que se aproveita pouca coisa (esta é dedicada a você, Viral). Ainda falamos sobre os spin-offs da saga e a mini-série de Snapchat, enquanto perdemos e recuperamos nossa audiência jovem, fazemos piadas de 5ª série e discutimos o que faz os filmes de V/H/S funcionarem tão bem.

This is a more in-depth look at the First Peoples of Texas. Why” because there were people here long before the Spanish and any other Europeans set foot on the land, First, allow me to try and clear up some terminology especially one word and that word is “Indians”. The people Columbus encountered when he first reached the shores of the continent where misnamed, because Columbus thought he had reached India and as we know, he was wrong. That's all I'm going to say about the subject. The inhabitants themselves did not refer to themselves in any specific way, other than often using the term “the people”, they did refer to other tribes with names. For example, the early Spanish encountered a group of nomadic buffalo hunters, they called Querechos. That group was later named Apache, which came from the Zuni word for enemy “apachu” which is what they were called by the Navajo. While some tribes were “farmers” the Apaches were hunter-gatherers and didn't do a lot of agriculture. When we speak of the tribes, it is important that we remember that those tribes that were hunter-gatherers had a certain lifestyle dictated by necessity as did those who were farmers. There is no one broad brush we can paint all tribes with; however, there are certain characteristics that many tribes have in common with one another. One area that was of particular importance to all tribes was in the area of religion or spirituality. Prior to the arrival of the Europeans in the 16th century, the tribes that lived in the area that is now Texas maintained a variety of religious practices. The majority of them embraced the idea of some type of supreme being and they all had creation stories. They were usually not monotheistic; many held a belief in a variety of powers often organized in a form of hierarchy. For agricultural tribes, there were various ceremonies that accompanied the planting and harvesting of crops. Hunter-gatherers often sought the help of spirits before searching for game which served as food for the tribe. Most tribes saw the universe in three levels. The upper level was one of predictability, lower level of chaos, and the level where humans lived which was a mixture of both of the other levels. The world was divided into 6 regions, north, south, east, west, up, and down and the year had a cold period and a hot period. All believe there is a spirit in everything, including animals such as buffalo, wolves, bears, etc. Spiritual leader shaman,AKA medicine man while all shamans were medicine men, not all medicine men were shamans. Shamans in addition to using plants and instructions from spiritual helpers, they also went into trances to visit land of the dead, where they gathered information on the sickness. What were some of the Hunter-Gatherer Tribes and where did they live? Comanches – North Central / Northwest Texas Kiowas – Panhandle – shared territory with Comanche Held a summer Sun Dance – to insure regeneration of the Buffalo Tonkawas - Gulf Coast (Houston area) Venerated the Great Wolf Karankawas – Gulf Coast (shared territory with Tonkawas – inner gulf coast) Apache – (Lipan) South and Southwest Texas – (Mescalero) West Texas – El Paso Coahuiltecans (KOE-ha-HWEE-ta-kanz) Rio Grande valley in what is now southern Texas and northeastern Mexico Farmers Farming groups tended to revere the earth, corn, rain, sun, and developed their beliefs based on fertility, and crop cycles. Spiritual leader priest – The medicine man or woman, acted like Shamans even going into trances for healing help. Priests, who most often were men, were religious specialists, had a long period of training valued not for healing abilities but because they knew the rituals and ceremonies to ensure bountiful harvests and healthy people. They also had witches who were evil. Could change their appearance, become animals, or even sparks of a fire. They stole people's lives and souls.

On this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with Zoë Davidson, a brilliant Director of Photography whose work speaks volumes — even when there's no dialogue. Based in Toronto, Zoë's shot films across Canada, the U.S., and the Caribbean, and her camera has a way of capturing not just images, but emotion. Her journey is rooted in storytelling, travel, and a deep connection to culture. Zoë holds an MFA from Howard University and spent four years teaching digital media before diving full-time into freelance cinematography. She's worked with heavy hitters like Lionsgate, Terence Nance, and even the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. But what stands out most isn't just the scale of her work; it's the heart behind it. Every frame feels intentional, rich, and alive. Her films have screened at Sundance, the Trinidad + Tobago Film Festival, and CaribbeanTales, and she's taken home major awards, including Best Documentary at Emerging Lens in 2024. She's also part of powerful collectives like Brown Girls Doc Mafia, Women in Media, and the Canadian Society of Cinematographers, always bringing community into focus. In this conversation, we talk about how Zoë lights a scene, how she finds truth through the lens, and what it means to tell stories across borders. It's honest, inspiring, and full of wisdom for anyone drawn to the art of visual storytelling.

[Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Thunderbolts*.]One of the very best parts of having a returning guest on Collider Ladies Night? Realizing how much they've accomplished during such a short period of time. Geraldine Viswanathan made her first Ladies Night appearance in 2020 for The Broken Hearts Gallery and since has completed a four-season run on Miracle Workers, starred opposite Zach Galifianakis, Elizabeth Banks and Sarah Snook in The Beanie Bubble, headlined Drive-Away Dolls with Margaret Qualley, made Oh, Hi! with Molly Gordon which secured distribution out of Sundance 2025, and now she's part of one of the biggest film franchises of all time, the Marvel Cinematic Universe.Viswanathan makes her first MCU appearance as Mel in Thunderbolts*. She's Valentina Allegra de Fontaine's (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) extremely attentive and diligent assistant. Initially, she seems quite loyal too, but when Bucky (Sebastian Stan) suggests Mel secretly slip him information on Val in hopes of having her impeached, eventually, Mel concedes. While that choice may suggest Mel's willingness to double-cross her boss, ultimately, she changes course again, pushing the button that saves Val's life from the Sentry (Lewis Pullman).So where does Mel stand? Does she skew more villain than hero? Does she still admire Valentina? That's exactly what I dug into with Viswanathan during her second Collider Ladies Night interview. Hosted on Acast.

On today's episode I start off with my fu adventurous weekend with Spotify and dealing wit them taking down 29 episodes and looking for loopholes to keep the p because of the music section, but it is a fight i shall continue to have. I also spend time surrounded by people in a waiting room which is my nightmare and the one funny thing that happened was a kid singing his heart to Doechii, but it was weird because what do they know about anxiety. Than i speak about some of my anxiety with a bumble date link and we play an intense game of one on one to see who pays the bill. THE MAIN INGREDIENT - LET ME PROVE MY LOVE TO YOUALICIA KEYS - YOU DON'T KNOW MY NAMESTOVE GOD COOKS - WARREN M OON(00:00 - 33:11)I have a new not so new segment which is about movie reviews and spoilers. This week i speak about “ Predator Killer of Killers” and how it is game changing for the franchise, they take us to a different aspect of the franchise and i love it. A true story of defiance, loyalty. and love plus science. This shall truly win all the awards at the Sundance festival. Make sure y'all check it out on all dsp when it comes out .(31:12 - 41:26)I then jump into The Cool Report where i discuss Big Man trump is out here giving men 5k to have children multiple times, but women a one time shot, so we're up City Boys!!!!! only if this is true and if it even passes. We then jumped into Kanye West vs the world or social media or however you see it. But it is a serious matter because is it true or a cry wolf situation because his recent actions have led us not to believe him. Then we get into Shanon Sharpe's allegation and how it was a situation that could have been avoided if he had stayed in his own age lane maybe. It's tricky and i can't really speak that much about it because i am a poor, and this really seems like it is based over money.(41:26 - 01:14:56)We then step into a segment where the listeners ask me 3 questions about myself or just randomness. A character ask if i saw that girl on FB who's boyfriend leaked her unmentionables for the whole internet to see, but she so calls “takes power” and put those photos on a Gildan and sells it to the public. I feel she will regret this later in life and notice that a couple days of chicky nuggets are not worth it. I also get asked on my opinion an the left for dead cast controversy which is really too late to complain about because we're in season 2 already.But i do not like the agenda that people are trying to push against those nerds that love the game play. I also let my cousin know that i do not agree with his take on Vanessa Kirby, YT women will be protected on my platform at all times lol. (01:14:57 - 01:28:02)Then we have 2 fans ask us a questions for PTL where we get asked the tough questions where we place ourselves in their shoes. Like a listener raising money for her boyfriend to get a car, and she need help choosing the perfect car for him, and boy oh boy i am happy to help with this subject because i am a mans man (pause). Another lover wants to be set free into the summer and wants to break up from his winter lover, big bro we do this every year you ain't lock down a routine yet. I tell them my goldfish died and i need some space, i am truly devastated. LOCK IN SIR.(01:28:03 - 01:36:49)THE FINi give thank to everyone that shows us love and wish y'all the best on the journey called life.(01:36:50 - 01:38:03)please continue to like, share, comment and subscribe.PEACE OUT!!!!

Send us a textThis week, I sit down with Dr. Phil Allen—a former All-American basketball player turned theologian, poet, and prophetic voice. From the basketball courts of North Carolina A&T to the halls of Fuller Seminary, Phil shares his remarkable journey from hoop dreams to a life dedicated to ministry, ethics, and racial healing.We explore his moving documentary “Open Wounds”, inspired by the tragic story of his grandfather—an untold chapter of racial violence that Phil discovered later in life. The film made its way to Sundance and now serves as a centerpiece for our discussion on generational trauma and redemption.We also dive into his powerful book, "The Prophetic Lens: The Camera and Black Moral Agency From MLK to Darnella Frazier", examining how the lens—literal and metaphorical—shapes our understanding of justice, especially in the wake of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and others.Topics include:Phil's transformation from athlete to scholar and poetLife at North Carolina A&TThe making of Open WoundsFaith, ethics, race, and cultureThe power of video and voice in modern civil rightsRunning as a spiritual and physical disciplineThis conversation is thoughtful, raw, and full of hope.

In a world where technology is doing more work for humans, the connections we create with other people will become more important than ever. But for many people, phones and screens are the main ways they see the world and communicate with others. The question is how can we cultivate relationships - through a screen or in real life - that are fulfilling and will help us reach our goals.In this interview, Topaz Adizes discusses his book 12 Questions for Love: A Guide to Intimate Conversations and Deeper Relationships. Topaz is working to help people create deeper human connection not only in marriages and romantic relationships, but between friends, extended families, and at work.

He shares some of the “12 Questions for Love” and provides guidance for how to construct questions that will strengthen relationships. He also discusses secrets to cultivating trust, advice for how to raise healthy children who are not addicted to their devices, and what it means to be successful.Topaz Adizes is an Emmy award-winning writer, director, and experience design architect. He is an Edmund Hillary fellow and Sundance/Skoll stories of change fellow. His works have been selected to Cannes, Sundance, IDFA, and SXSW; featured in New Yorker magazine, Vanity Fair, and the New York Times; and have garnered an Emmy for new approaches to documentary and Two World Press photo awards for immersive storytelling and interactive documentary.

IN THE BEDROOM, the 2001 Oscar nominated motion picture, was given praise by movie critic Roger Ebert as the best film he had seen at Sundance. It is a family drama, but it also is much more than that. Generational, getting old, losing a loved one, and seeing the end of a family line. The movie was ground breaking in many ways and has become a classic.From IMDB: A New England couple's college-aged son dates an older woman who has two small children and an unwelcome ex-husband.The film was directed by Todd Field who also acts. He co-wrote the script with Robert Festinger based off the story KILLINGS by Andre Dubus. The cast is filled with big names including Sissy Spacek, Tom Wilkinson, Marisa Tomei, Nick Stahl, and William Mapother. It received fabulous reviews and earned over $40M USD at the box office. Your co-hosts take a look at this classic film and give their thoughts.

Caroline Monnet is a multidisciplinary artist of Anishinaabe and French ancestry, based in Montreal. She has carved out her own path as an artist and filmmaker, building a practice rooted in Indigenous knowledge systems and contemporary expression. Her work explores identity, community, and the impact of colonialism—offering any creative entrepreneur or artist a powerful model of what it means to build a practice anchored in intention and vision.Caroline brings a rich, critical perspective to her work. Her art has been exhibited globally—from the Whitney Biennial to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the National Gallery of Canada. Her films have screened at TIFF, Sundance, Berlinale, and beyond. And she's received major accolades, including the Prix Pierre-Ayot, a Sobey Art Award nomination, and a residency with the Cannes Film Festival's Cinefondation.In our conversation, Caroline shares the realities of navigating the art world independently—and speaks candidly about how, as she puts it, “no one tells artists they need to be entrepreneurs too.” Her insights offer powerful takeaways not only for creatives, but for any woman building a business or forging her own path professionally.This conversation airs this week as we get ready to debut our new podcast, Collection'elle, in a few days. This new show aims to encourage women to engage in contemporary art collecting—at a time when women are rising in influence in the art world, yet women artists remain underrepresented in collections. Collection'elle highlights the voices of women artists like Caroline, while also decoding market dynamics through conversations with gallerists, curators, and art-world insiders. Her full interview will continue there, but today, you'll get a first listen to Caroline's story of building a creative practice that's deeply personal, political, and visionary.This season of our podcast is brought to you by TD Canada Women in Enterprise.

This week, I have an emotional chat with director NATALIE RAE about her beautiful, award-winning NETFLIX documentary, "DAUGHTERS," which won two awards at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, was shortlisted for the 2025 Oscars, and is now up for a Peabody. Listen as Natalie tells me about the 8 long years it took her and co-director ANGELA PATTON to make "Daughters" and what it felt like to finally get into Sundance and then sell the project to Netflix after hearing "no" so many times. Find out how Natalie's music video background inspired and influenced her to mix camera formats and develop a unique look to the film. "Daughters" chronicles how a group of young girls and their incarcerated fathers prepare for and then attend a "daddy-daughter-dance." Because these fathers almost never see their daughters, this singular event is incredibly special for all involved. Check out the Daughters Trailer and watch the film now only on Netflix. Plus, I give you my take on the "White Lotus" season finale. "The Coconut Milk was off." And I share some footage from my trip to the LA "Fighting Oligarchy" rally.

Mindie Lind is a Seattle-based musician. In a new short animated film called "View from the Floor", Lind and co-director Megan Griffiths explore Mindie’s life as an artist grappling with imposter syndrome. Mindie was born without legs. And as she came of age, she couldn’t shake the idea that the praise and attention she received was more about her disability, and people looking to create “inspiration porn,” rather than her talent. View from the Floor debuted at Sundance this year and is available to view online now through the New York Times.

In the summer of 2016, with a guaranteed Hillary Clinton presidency was on the horizon, the Obama Era enjoyed a premature victory-lap with SOUTHSIDE WITH YOU (2016). Seen nine years later, this Sundance drama about the Obamas' first date has, shall we say, aged poorly. PLUS: Did you know that Elon Musk's family has a (very racist) Canadian connection?

Two weeks ago Sundance Film Festival announced it was leaving Utah and moving to Colorado. Following nearly a year of negotiations, the potential offer of millions in tax incentives for the local film industry, and a battle against Cincinnati and Sundance's original home of Park City, Boulder ultimately won the bid. After decades in one place, what made this movie institution decide to head to Colorado? And what could it mean for our state's existing film industry? We're revisiting a conversation from earlier this year that host Bree Davies had with Ali Vallarta, the host of City Cast Salt Lake and former Sundance staffer, to talk about the potential impacts of this big move.

[Editor's Note: We experienced some technical difficulties with the audio of this episode. Our apologies, and thank you for your understanding!]Meghann Fahy's been thriving on screen for quite some time now. She was in over 80 episodes of One Life to Live as Hannah O'Connor and starred in the hit Freeform series The Bold Type which ran for five seasons. But, there's no denying that The White Lotus was a different kind of game-changer. Not only did Mike White's HBO series continue to be a pop culture sensation in its second season, but the quality of the new episodes earned nine members of the ensemble Emmy nominations, including Fahy.Since that Emmy nomination? Fahy's downright soaring. She had a role in the 2024 genre mash-up gem Your Monster starring a Collider Ladies Night favorite, Melissa Barrera. She was in The Perfect Couple with Nicole Kidman, she was in Rebuilding with Josh O'Connor which earned high praise at Sundance, and is also in Molly Smith Metzler's highly anticipated Netflix series Sirens with Julianne Moore and Milly Alcock. All very exciting achievements, but there's something extra special about the movie Fahy has hitting theaters on April 11. Christopher Landon's Drop marks the very first time Fahy is #1 on the call sheet for a feature film.She headlines as Violent, a widowed mother reluctantly going on her first date in years. While dining in an upscale restaurant with her dating app match, Brandon Sklenar's Henry, Violet starts getting a string of unusual and alarming anonymous drops to her phone. Is it her date? Is it another diner? Or perhaps it's an employee at the restaurant. Violet doesn't know and she'll have to figure it out on her own because the assailant is watching and they insist she tell no one - or else.Drop rocks a sharp script and the much-needed skilled mind and eye to execute it in Landon, but the success of the film heavily depends on Fahy's ability to deftly navigate the production challenges that come with such a concept while also ensuring the viewer can feel the threat Violet's under, and she excels tackling both - big time. While celebrating Drop's World Premiere screening at SXSW, Fahy visited the Collider Media Studio at the Cinema Center for a Collider Ladies Night interview to go back to the beginning and recap her journey to landing at the top of the call sheet.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with comic, actor, writer and poet TIM KEY! This is the first of a two parter... As well as being a unique individual in his own right, Tim is also one of those 'six degrees' people who you can get to and from just about anyone involved in comedy and screen. It speaks well how much Tim is adored in the wider world but also Tim is just awesome in all roles. Whether you met him through one of the various Alan Partridge projects, or through Taskmaster / Alex Horne-iverse, or through appearances in all manner of manifestations, you'll get a ton from this episode (and the subsequent one!) as it's just good times and good vibes from the beginning. You'll hear about the process of short film to feature film (and how to get big stars in said film), the surrealness of Sundance festival, the flying man beginning with E, standing to the side of horror films, G Horne, baths on stage and dancers in bed, and a splinter/rival podcast called 'Speaking Of Films' (not a thing).
