Soon, the Bloor Cinema in Toronto will reopen its doors under the stewardship of Hot Docs, and will almost exclusively screen documentary films.

What’s your approach to modelling?
“It’s like acting for me. I always try to understand the inspiration behind the photo shoot—the woman, film or book that we’re translating into a photograph.”

FALL FILMS
OUR IDIOT BROTHER
Paul Rudd as a cheerful stoner.
A grinning, bearded Paul Rudd—clad in baggy attire and Crocs—sweetly agrees to sell a little non-sanctioned herb to a despondent police officer in uniform while manning a farmer’s market stall. Promptly carted off to jail, he gets out early on good behaviour and returns to the fold of his three successful sisters—Zooey Deschanel, Emily Mortimer and Elizabeth Banks—where family life proves to be entertainingly discordant.

The designed life
Toronto’s annual Interior Design Show (January 27 to 30, interiordesignshow.com) is a blow-up labyrinth of commercial and sponsor exhibits, indie design experiments and much spectacle in-between. On opening night, 20 one-off Vitra Panton chairs will be up for charity auction, all reimagined by big names like design legend Bruce Mau and fashion darlings Greta Constantine. In an exhibit titled Sibling Revelry, Sarah Richardson dreams up a space with her younger brother, Theo Richardson (who happens to be one-third of the hot N.Y.C. design trio Rich Brilliant Willing), while ladywear designer David Dixon worked with his brother Glenn Dixon, an interior designer. For discoveries, you can’t miss the Studio North exhibit, featuring bright young talent like Montreal graffiti art object–maker Trash Bonbon and Toronto eco-minded, sleight-handed furniture designer Evan Bare. —Sarah Nicole Prickett

Stephen Dorff, showered and everything, at the New York screening of Somewhere. Photo by Jemal Countess/Getty Images
There’s a whole generation of girls that knows Stephen Dorff best, or perhaps only, from his transformative role as…the guy who rescued Britney Spears from a bathtub in “Everytime.” With Somewhere, the latest tender, plotless, irresistible film by Sofia Coppola (in theatres January 7), that should change. The love story of an adolescent father (pill-popping, bed-hopping movie star Johnny Marco) and his preternaturally wise girl-child (played by Elle Fanning), Somewhere is less Stephen Dorff’s comeback than his redemption. It’s a makeover in which he looks a lot like himself: the wild, damaged wonderboy every unreasonable woman wants to fix.
On a Monday morning at Toronto’s Hazelton Hotel, Dorff sat down to a breakfast of sliced fruit, a Diet Coke, and Camel Lights. He wore old jeans and a T-shirt, like in the film, and didn’t seem particularly showered. “I feel like hell,” he growled; sure, but hell looks good on him. And when the tape rolled, he was gold: talking eagerly and untiredly about everything from Johnny Marco’s “classic look” to Sofia Coppola’s un-Hollywood-ness to Elle Fanning’s new favourite bracelet. Guess who bought it? Yep. Don’t pretend you’re not falling. Read more »

Last night marked the opening of the Calgary International Film Festival and ten days of non-stop movie going and partying. Having attended at least a dozen film fest galas world wide, Jacqueline Dupuis, executive director of CIFF, knows a few things about getting red carpet ready. Luckily she took a few moments out of her over-stressed and over-scheduled life to give me the lowdown on her look for opening night. Read more »
