The Toronto International Film Festival  is richer than ever this year with so many more World Premieres of new movies that are going to feature high on both queerguru’s ‘must see’ list but also in the nominations for Academy Awards.   One such essential piece of potential glorious silliness is Australian filmmaker Jocelyn Moorhouse’s adaption of Rosalie Ham’s  2000 novel ‘The Dressmaker’.   Set in the 1950’s its the tale of a highly successful couture dressmaker who suddenly comes back from Europe to her remote home in the scruffy Australian outback to deal with demons from her past ….. the title above are the first words that come out of her otherwise elegant mouth. This quirky comedy-thriller-mystery-horror-revenge saga serves as great vehicle for a wonderful Kate Winslet to stun us and the entire local inhabitants …..which include a cross-dressing Police Sergeant …. in this delightful camp tale that we simply cannot wait to see.  She may, or may not, be a murderer as some people suspect, but the clothes she designs, are however to die for.

The movie will be released in US movie theaters later this year.
