I'm back in Toronto after a working vacation in my home state of Michigan. My final report on Michael Moore's Traverse City Film Festival is now available on Indiewire, including coverage of a presentation by Borat director Larry Charles divulging behind the scenes details of his film. Charles said he set out to prove that "five guys in a van could make a hit movie" that was "intense, urgent and can connect with an audience." Certainly I will never forget Borat's official world premiere in TIFF's Midnight Madness section last year. Here's a picture I snapped on the red carpet. For more on this year's Midnight Madness, check out my colleague Colin Geddes' brand new blog.
