Robert Redford, the big-screen idol turned Oscar-winning director, Sundance Film Festival founder and environmental activist, died on Tuesday. He was 89. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/m...

TIFF was incredible.

- Got engaged to my partner of 9 years

- Saw 3 world premieres (Mile End Kicks, The Man in My Basement, Dust Bunny)

- Waited 8 hours in line for the criterion closet van and made some friends

- Met Matt Johnson, my biggest creative inspiration

Toronto, you have my heart. ❤️
