For Episode 455, I am joined by Katie Johnson, Josh Parham & Tom O’Brien to discuss the 2025 New York Film Festival (NYFF) Spotlight announcement and the final additions to the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) lineup. We reveal the winner of last week’s poll for NYFF63, where we asked, “Which Film From The 2025 New York Film Festival Main Slate Are You Most Looking Forward To Seeing?” For this week’s poll, now that we know the full lineups for Venice, TIFF50 and NYFF63 (with Telluride to announce still, but with many of its titles already inferred), we’re asking, “Which 2025 Fall Film Festival Films Are You Most Excited To See?” We also share our reactions to the trailers for “Marty Supreme,” “It Was Just An Accident,” “Eleanor The Great,” “Steve,” reveal the 2009 NBP Film Community Award Winners, answer your fan-submitted questions, and more! Thank you all for listening, supporting, subscribing, and voting. We will see you all again next week!
