Every year, the city of Toronto hosts more than 250 films, with over 1,000 screenings, attracting hundreds of thousands of people from the entertainment industry, press, and film lovers worldwide. 2025 marked the 50th anniversary of the Toronto International Film Festival, and after a few years hampered by COVID and the SAG-AFTRA strike, TIFF returned in full force. Tickets were hard to come by, blocked-off streets were packed, theaters were full, and whole casts and crews showed up for star-studded Q&As. Best of all, most of the movies were pretty good!
