Canada Picks Its Top Films from TIFF; 8-Film Quentin Tarantino Blu-ray Collection Announced!

With TIFF officially over, Canada.com has picked its top picks from the festival, and SMASHED is among the list. Here’s what they had to say:

Too often, films about addiction veer into heavy melodrama or turn into sensational shockfests. Here’s a look at alcoholism that’s grounded by a moving naturalism, even as its flawed heroine spirals through after-work benders that go from hilarious to sad to frightening. Mary Elizabeth Winstead delivers a career-making performance as a young schoolteacher who realizes she’s lost control of her drinking. The stellar supporting cast includes “Breaking Bad”‘s Aaron Paul as her enabling husband, “Parks and Recreation”‘s Nick Offerman as her sympathetic co-worker and Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer as her AA sponsor.

Also, Lionsgate and Miramax have announced the Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection, coming to Blu-ray on November 20th. On the Death Proof disc, we’ll see an uncut version of Mary singing “Baby It’s You”. Here’s the details:

DEATH PROOF
Kurt Russell stars as a tough-talking, psychotic serial murderer who transforms his stunt car into an indestructible killing machine, then climbs behind the wheel to stalk and terrorize a group of women on the road. What he doesn’t realize is that he’s picked the wrong babes to mess with.
