The talk of Toronto

Best film Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers.

Best lead performances Jamie Foxx’s charisma tsunami in the courtroom drama The Burial; Jodie Comer’s delicate, mesmerising turn (below) in the dystopian survival film The End We Start From, from debut British director Mahalia Belo.

Best supporting performances Da’Vine Joy Randolph, devastatingly good in The Holdovers; Jodie Foster in the swimming biopic Nyad.
