The 2023 Festival will open with the premiere of ONE LIFE starring Sir Anthony Hopkins, direct from its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The Festival centrepiece is THE CRITIC, a wickedly mischievous reimagining of Anthony Quinn’s novel Curtain Call, featuring an all-star cast led by Sir Ian McKellen and Gemma Arterton.

Closing the Festival is the Australian Premiere of WICKED LITTLE LETTERS, based on a true scandal of the 1920s. It stars Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley as neighbours in a small town whose residents start receiving anonymous, expletive-laden letters.

ONLY IN CINEMAS OCTOBER

SYNOPSIS:

From acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher (Se7en, Fight Club, and Gone Girl), and starring Academy Award Nominee Michael Fassbender  and Academy Award Winner Tilda Swinton comes the neo-noir action thriller THE KILLER

A man solitary and cold, methodical and unencumbered, the killer waits in the shadows, watching for his next target. And yet the longer  he waits, the more he thinks he’s losing his mind, if not his cool. A brutal, bloody and stylish noir story of a professional assassin lost in a  world without a moral compass, this is a case study of a man alone, armed to the teeth and slowly losing his mind. 

“This is a thriller of pure surface and style and managed with terrific flair and Fassbender’s careworn, inscrutable face is just right for it.” – The Guardian 

THE KILLER Red Carpet Preview includes a Stone & Wood beer on arrival.
