Hollywood studios love to use the Toronto Film Festival as a launching pad for Oscar contenders, but this year there’s a different buzz. In an online letter to event chiefs, an array of notables — Jane Fonda, Naomi Klein, Danny Glover and David Byrne among them — have protested the festival’s choice to spotlight the city of Tel Aviv and 10 Israeli moviemakers, Post film editor V.A. Musetto reports. “Intentionally or not,” the letter says, “[the festival] has become complicit in the Israeli propaganda machine.” A week earlier, a Canadian filmmaker pulled his short from the event in protest. But the festival, which opens Thursday, refused to back down, insisting it would continue to show “the best films we can find.”
