Hundreds of guests came out once again for the
Toronto International Film Festival's opening night party to fete
Paul Gross' "
Passchendaele." If the popcorn didn't cut the mustard during the screening, there was plenty of food to be had at the party -- from meatloaf to spring rolls. And of course plenty of libation for those doing a liquid dinner. Taking part in all the festivities,
German Films' Oliver Mahrdt, the
Florida Film Festival's Matthew Curtis and Shannon Larimer and Nancy Collet from the
Middle East Film Festival.
