Hamnet Wins TIFF, '25 Emmys & International Feature Shaping Up - ORC 9/17/25

Hamnet wins the People’s Choice Award as we wrap up our thoughts on TIFF, and we dive into the Best International Feature category amidst many new National Selections. Then we dive into a centerpiece look at the Primetime Emmy Awards, and we finish by catching up with some new movie trailers including the latest looks at Springsteen, Christy & Wicked: For Good. Our condolences to Charlie Kirk’s family and our sadness at Robert Redford’s passing atop the show make us grateful to have the chance to discuss happier things like awards, even if that means sad movies or series in play.
