TIFF 2019 Lineup Adds: ‘Lucy In The Sky’ & More

August 13, 2019 Jordan Ruimy

Alright, bear with me here, I am going to tackle today’s TIFF announcement and what it also means for Telluride.

— First of all, as predicted here, it seems as though Amazon Studios is taking “The Aeronauts” to Telluride and Toronto and Fox Searchlight Pictures is taking “Lucy in the Sky” just to Toronto. Fair enough, don’t be too disappointed by the lack of ‘fests’ for Lucy, Fox Searchlight has a very good relationship with TIFF and, when all was said and done, maybe they only wanted to go to Toronto.

— Where's “First Cow”? Despite Venice boss saying Kelly Reichardt’s “First Cow” was going to Telluride and Toronto, it was still not announced in today’s, supposedly, last wave of titles.

— GOING to Telluride and Toronto are Trey Edward Schultz’ “Waves,” Terrence Malick’s “A Hidden Life,” Tom Harper’s “The Aeronauts” Michael Covino’s “The Climb.”

— NOT going to Telluride: Hirokazu Kore-eda’s “The Truth,” “Lucy in the Sky,” “Seberg.” “WASP Network,” “Atlantic,” “Bacurau,” “Beanpole,” “Synonymes,” “About Endlessness.”

— TIFF has added some excellent selections. No, really, the second wave announcement is better than we all thought it was going to be: “The Aeronauts,” “Lucy in the Sky,” “Seberg,” “WASP Network,” “The Truth.”

Current Telluride Lineup: Ford v. Ferrari, The Two Popes, The Aeronauts, Uncut Gems, Judy, Motherless Brooklyn, Marriage Story, First Cow, The Climb, Waves, Pain and Glory, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Parasite, Varda by Agnes, The Report, A Hidden Life
