介绍:
Red carpets rolling around and cameras flashing, Toronto of Canada is welcoming its most notable event of the year jam-packed with A-list stars converging in the city.
The Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne is thought by some to have a shot at a repeat win for his new film "The Danish Girl", in which he plays one of the first people to have gender reassignment surgery.
"getting to play someone like Lili Elbe, who is an icon in the trans community, was a great privilege and you don't take that lightly, if you're lucky enough to be cast as her. So I spent a year meeting members of the trans community, different generations of trans women and their generosity and their kindness at explaining their stories, of course there's no one trans story, every single person has a different one but their transparency and kindness in order to educate me and to educate cisgender people was wonderful."
The actor admits he feels nervous about how the audience would rate his work.
"When you care about something and when you put everything into it, it always feels weird. Like when you do a play as an actor, you're there doing it, and the audience is watching so you can't be in your own head at the same time, but it's so odd about doing a film and sitting with an audience watching you and it does make you - yeah, it's a bit intimidating."
Yet for Golden Globe nominator Idris Elba, he has other concern for his latest war drama, "Beasts of No Nation."
"It's important as an actor, I am a vessel, so if I have an issue or take issue with something I could use my vessel to highlight, I should. I think all actors, all creatives, all writers, if you've got in opinion about something can help make change with it, do it. So making this film certainly took that."
Screening Chinese movies such as Guan Hu's Mr Six and Jia Zhangke's "Mountains May Depart", the 40th Annual Toronto International Film Festival will drop its curtain on September 20th.
