What makes a film festival unforgettable? Ben Harrison joins Shane Hewitt to break down TIFF, where he saw 20 films ranging from crowd-pleasing comedies to award-season heavyweights.

Ben highlights Roof Man starring Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst as a festival standout and picks Nirvana the Band the Show: The Movie as his favorite for its humor and inventive style. Beyond the films themselves, they celebrate the festival’s communal spirit, the magic of theaters, and the lively debates that follow screenings.
