The streets are abuzz…with the sound of TIFF! Flashes, camera clicks, whispers and cheers; it’s a wonderful and chaotic time to be in the city. If you’ve passed by the Holt Renfrew on Bloor in recent days, you’ve probably wondered what all the commotion is about.
Mystery solved! We’re here to tell you that it’s your favourite award-winning actors/directors/writers/producers running into the Variety Studio for interviews, and a bit of retail therapy perhaps?
Now in its sixth year, Variety’s festival-filmmaker video series and portrait studio has attracted some major talent. This year has been one for the books!
The studio saw the likes of Jessica Chastain, Kate Mara, Elle Fanning, Imogen Poots, Julianne Moore, Josh Brolin, Ellen Page, Naomi Watts, Elizabeth Olsen, Toni Colette, Kristen Stewart (is she ever not the coolest chick in the room?), Idris Elba, Nicholas Hoult, Elisabeth Moss (who treated cameras to “the robot” which = INSTA girl crush) and more!
With more guests scheduled to stop by today (including Dakota Johnson and Rachel McAdams), you should definitely follow the action @HoltRenfrew or by tracking #VarietyatHolts.
