Toronto Awards Top Trophy to Japan
15 September 2003 | From Studio Briefing | See recent Studio Briefing news
The Toronto International Film Festival has awarded its People's Choice award to the Japanese film Zatoichi, which was written and directed by and stars Takeshi Kitano. (The film also won the runner-up Silver Lion award at last week's Venice Film Festival.) The $30,000 City Award for Best Canadian Feature Film went to director Denys Arcand's Les Invasions Barbares (The Barbarian Invasions). At the awards ceremony, Festival chief Piers Handling remarked that only a few months ago, during the SARS scare, "There were concerns as to what kind of festival it would be this year, whether the films would be here, whether the stars would be here. And clearly, at the end of it all, it was perhaps our most successful edition."
