The Long Take Review

2025 Fall Film Festival Winners and Losers


Listen Later

When our favorite critics and journalists travel across the globe — from Venice to Colorado and Toronto — to watch and review new movies, Oscar addicts like us sit up and pay attention. Films from high profile, beloved directors can flop. New films from unknowns can break out onto the scene. It’s never what anyone expects. On this episode of The Long Take Review, P.T. and I pass the mic back and forth to share our winners, losers, and head-scratchers coming out of recent festival premieres. Whose hype draft weathered the storm? And what will the Oscar race look like going forward? Which film’s buzz prompted P.T. to buy tickets to not one but two screenings? Listen and learn.
