TIFF Day 3 with the Gutter’s own Sachin Hingoo

At BiffBamPop, the Gutter’s own Sachin Hingoo reports from Day 3 of the Toronto International Film Festival 2025! He saw Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Movie (USA), Christy (USA), and one of the Gutter’s most anticipated movies of the year, The Furious (Hong Kong)!

“Chatting with my TIFF pals this week, I realized that I, consciously or not, always have a few selections in my 20-30 film lineup each year that trend towards ‘normie.’ Big, splashy productions with recognizable stars that I can talk to my family or coworkers about and not some obscure, ultraviolent foreign film that no one but the hardest-core cinephiles has heard of or will conceivably ever see. And certainly not something like Fuck My Son!

That was what two-thirds of Day 3 was for me, with the Sydney Sweeney Oscar bid Christy and the third star-studded Knives Out movie from Rian Johnson, Wake Up Dead Man, which will be on Netflix for everyone to watch in a couple of months.”
