    The 34th annual TIFF多伦多国际电影节见闻

    今年很幸运地在经济如此低迷的情况下找到这份薪水不错,性质也不错的工作。为了能留在The Sutton Place ,我毅然决然地辞去了CNE CASINO和SOHO METROPOLITAN的工作,全心迎战本次电影节。以下是关于第34届多伦多国际电影节的报道,我们作为电影节的主要会场之一,每天迎接着各位好莱坞大明星的大驾光临:

    Tiff The 34th annual Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is considered one of the most influential film festivals in the world today.  Running from September 10th to 19th, this annual celebration of cinema and culture attracts some of the most recognized actors, directors, executives and critics from around the globe, not to mention the thousands of passionate cinemaphiles intent on viewing the finest works that Hollywood, independent studios and international filmmakers have to offer.  A special tribute to last-year's TIFF-premiered Bollywood blockbuster, Slumdog Millionaire, starring Dev Patel, Freida Pinto and directed by Danny Boyle, is also planned for this year's festival.

    Of course, the best place to catch a glimpse of Hollywood royalty during the festival is in the trendy, tony downtown Toronto neighbourhood known as yorkville.  Going one step further, HotTorontoDeals.com is pleased to bring our visitors the inside scoop on some of the finest Toronto hotels and restaurants where celebrity sightseeing will be at a premium.  We begin with a list of several local luxury hotels (and the name of the in-house bar/restaurant) that always seem to attract the lion's share of A-list Hollywood celebrities come festival time: 

    Sutton place hotel Four Seasons Hotel (Avenue Bar & Lounge) - 21 Avenue Road
    The Hazelton Hotel (One Restaurant) - 118 Yorkville Avenue
    Park Hyatt Hotel (The Roof Lounge & Morton's Steakhouse) - 4 Avenue Road
    The Sutton Place Hotel (TIFF Press Conferences at the back, Bistro 990 across the street and Accent's inside the hotel) - 955 Bay Street
    Le Meridien King Edward Hotel (Victoria's) - 37 King Street East


     

    Hundreds of Hollywood and international movie stars are scheduled to make an appearance at this year's Toronto International Film Festival, among them:


    George Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, Matt Damon, Chris Rock, Drew Barrymore, Mariah Carey, Penelope Cruz, Megan Fox, Ewan McGregor, Jennifer Connelly, Keanu Reeves, Colin Farrell, Demi Moore, Rob Lowe, Ellen Page, Michael Cera, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Garner, Kevin Spacey, Snoop Dogg, Atom Egoyan, Edward Norton, Liam Neeson, Nicolas Cage, Noami Watts and many more.

    早在电影节开始前,同事们就不断地向我吹嘘他们以前见到的明星,还说每次JACKY CHAN来多伦多都住我们这里。前年和去年见到BRAD PITT还见过Tom Cruise,听得我这叫一个心花怒放。终于盼到电影节开幕,每天上班都处在亢奋状态。每当一部加长卡迪拉克停在酒店门前,我们都忍不住关注着某位大明星的到来。。。

    截止到今天,我亲眼见到的明星有:George Clooney(和他保镖聊了一会儿,他来的时候围观的人太多,只能远远观望), Viggo Mortensen(指环王主演之一,还和他在Gift Shop聊了几句,本人和电影里相差巨大,人非常之绅士), Patricia Clarkson(她来我们礼宾部取信,正好我接待,很有气质+ 超级NICE), Julianne Moore(参加著名品牌CHOLE的发布会,打扮非常讲究步出酒店),Amanda Seyfried( 上楼给客人送鲜花时和她同在一部电梯里,打扮得很神秘,帽子拉的特别低,一看便知是明星。骨瘦如柴的样子让人怜惜)田壮壮导演和何平导演(我亲自帮他们订高尔夫场地,租车。导演本人很淳朴,告诉我MAGGIE Q在首映后就回香港了,我无缘见到她)。另外TIFF的主要工作人员包括CEO, COO也全部住在酒店VIP房里,遗憾的是酒店规定员工不得在酒店内要求签名 及合影。
