Festival season is in full flush as we start with a look at the announced line up of two of TIFF’s most high profile sections, Galas and Special Presentations. Our coverage of CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG begins here, but when will it end? Next we share some updates about the NYFF and Venice lineups and and pair it with some speculation about what announcements might be imminent. After a brief sojourn about Jordan Peele’s recently announced NOPE we lay Cannes 2021 to rest, discussing the last few premieres, Spike Lee at the awards ceremony, and the winners past and present, before a mini review about Palme Winner Julie Ducournau’s first feature, RAW. It’s a jam packed episode, catch that festival fever!
