Tucked away in the fresh air mountains of Telluride, Colorado is the 4 day film festival of gnarly indie, foreign film titles. Commencing today, this year appears to be a slim pickings in terms of anything fresh and not showing at either Toronto or Venice. Instead this year's bunch pulls from the quality titles at this past Cannes edition.

It will be a hometown hero's welcome at TIFF for Canadian filmmaker David Cronenberg who'll be premiering Eastern Promises - the film will get the red carpet treatment and today we've got the 2nd trailer for the film stashed behind the poster image below (click on it folks)! Look for IONCINEMA.com coverage of the mafia film set for a limited 14th of September release and then a wide release one week later.

The Counterfeiters is Austria's entry in the foreign-language Oscar race this year and Stefan Ruzowitzky's World War II drama has a good chance at making it in the final 5 selections with Sony Pictures Classics backing the picture.

In today's foursome, we have the first of Weinstein co.'s singer-related music biographies and we've placed two highly anticipated Paramount Vantage in the mix. Curiously all four films are book novel to film adaptations.

Among the titles that IONCINEMA.com will be covering at TIFF and therefore look forward to getting familiarized a little beforehand is Hector Babenco's The Past (O Pasado). A couple of years after Carandiru, I'm glad to see the Brazilian filmmaker (born in Argentina) back in form after a serious cancer-related illness that took him off the map for a couple of years.
