“It’s not been a week since the Toronto International Film Festival left us, and this week’s new releases make it hard for us to move on with a couple of TIFF premieres leading the way.”

The best thing Paul Haggis has ever given us (indirectly) is this McSweeney’s column. Oh, sure, you could argue Due South, or his work on Casino Royale, but the best thing about Due South was the jangly guitar theme and Casino Royale’s last act is almost hilariously bad.

It’s a shame about Casino Royale, though. It’s amazing up to that bit.
