Single tickets for the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival go on sale this Sunday, September 2. And with a record 372 films being screened (146 of them world premieres), it can be daunting trying to figure out which ones are actually worth the $20 (or $40, for galas and special presentations) and hours in line. The solution: our guide to the 50 most talked-about movies at the festival this year, in which we scrutinize the advance hype (and the buzz from Sundance, Berlin, Cannes and Venice) to separate the must-sees from the flicks that only a mother could love.

More images revealed of Rachel McAdams on the set of Brian De Palma’s Passion (and they’re so, so weird)

Brian De Palma’s Passion, set to debut at the Cannes Film Festival, looks absolutely steamy. The first image from the movie was revealed this week, and understandably it involves castmates Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace on the verge of making out. (It is a film tease, after all.)

Of course, while a film about seduction, manipulation, dominance and humiliation would be good on its own, there’s also the addition of a murder plot to look forward to. Could it be? A film sexier than this summer’s Cosmopolis?
