O'Toole to Visit Toronto to Promote VENUS at T.I.F.F.???

OK so now I'm a little excited. Peter will most likely be passing through Toronto during the International Film Festival here in September. His film, Venus, distributed by Miramax in the States and presumably Alliance Atlantis here in Canada, is not a gala film, but this is the first venue to screen VENUS for critics, so it's logical he would attend. The press certainly seem to think so.

A collection of images from the film are at Nicola Dove Photography.

I think I'm going to try and get an interview with Peter - as I did unsuccessfully when he was last in town promoting "Rock My World", which was shot in Burlington (near Toronto). Wish me luck!
