TIFF Wrap Up By: Andrew Moran Another year has passed the 32nd Toronto International Film Festival has passed. The festival didn’t have a lot of ‘breakout’ pictures but it did bring a lot of celebrities to Toronto. This year George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Ewan McGregor and, of course, the almighty Woody Allen came to town. 
What captured headlines this year at TIFF were: 1) Sean Penn’s outburst at the festival for not being allowed to smoke. 2) Colin Farrell’s shopping spree with the homeless man. 3) Woody Allen’s presence in this city. Below is this year’s list of winners: Cadillac People's Choice Award:
