TIFF prizes: The Fabelmans, Weird Al, Black Ice, and more...

The first wave of the bridge festivals, taking us from summer to the fall film season and thereby kicking off the Oscar race have ended with TIFF wrapping hot on the heels of Venice and Telluride. It's time to update the Oscar charts which we're busy with at the moment and will start posting very soon. While you wait for those updates, here are the winners from TIFF. While TIFF is a non-competitive festival unlike the other "big five" festivals (Sundance, Venice, Canes, Berlin) they do have audience awards as well as a few juries for very specific things, just not the main slate. Their "People's Choice" audience awards get a lot of press partially because the winners often go on to Oscar nominations and sometimes wins.
AUDIENCE AWARDS
PEOPLE'S CHOICE: The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg)
runners up: Women Talking (Sarah Polley) and Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (Rian Johnson)...
