STAYIN' AWAY FROM T.I.F.F. - AND NO REGRETS

People line up for TIFF tickets - but check their bank balances, first.

As the Toronto Star says...

"It now costs $23.50 for a regular, single ticket for an adult to see a movie at TIFF. That’s up from $19.69 last year."

And I say...

"That is exactly why I have not attended the Toronto International Film Festival in years. It's a bloody racket."


The Toronto Star...

You are right. I was walking along King Street, yesterday, right near the TIFF action, and there were lots of orange t-shirt clad volunteers. Didn't you know?... it's a step into the film business.

"Make great contacts!"

lol.

Thanks for your astute observation!
