Finally, a week and a half after the fact, I am getting around to my more-fangirling-Richard-Armitage-at-TIFF post. I already fangirled a bit here, but more delights of Richard at the Toronto Film Festival came in after that and I’ve been clicking and saving images like mad. As always, you can click on the smaller images in this post to enlarge them.
There was an extra image I hadn’t seen yet of Richard in his first TIFF outfit. I didn’t think the yellow did anything for him but I was looking at his face mostly anyhow.
Then came pics or Richard in a second purple suit, my fave suit of the suits I saw him wear there.
I loved the background in this picture and the way Rich leans against that wall with hands in pockets.
Nobody puts Richard in a corner? Yeah, little Dirty Dancing reference there, but apparently he does corners well!
Even Julie Delpy joined him in his corner. That smile in this following picture reminds me of the selfie-smiles he tweets out that always look a little off to me. Maybe it’s the way he looks into the camera?
There was more posing with Julie:
Portraits with a dark background:
Portraits with a light background:
Portrait seduction is complete!
There were some images of an interview with Julie:
And final funky pics infront of a mirror. I really liked that solo one.
There’s a video interview: https://deadline.com/video/my-zoe-julie-delpy-interview-video-toronto/ and some screenshots from that:
Fellow fan Cyn over in Twitter was at TIFF and shared this video interview after the screening of My Zoe which, beware, contains spoilers:
And this video about the ending of the movie, which also contains spoilers!
Also this image:
Just before I wanted to hit post, I saw this video pop by which has Richard and Julie sitting on that couch as in the interview pics above, the Variety interview: https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/sports/my-zoe-variety-studio-at-tiff/vi-AAHrcIq
Couldn’t resist, took ‘a few’ screenshots:
And last but not least, these shots from the My Zoe movie (source) showed up:
Oh man, Richard holding his movie daughter like that does all the right things to my heart! I’m really curious to see this movie.
All in all, not such a bad haul, right? 🙂
MTA: I just found the whole video of the Q&A after the screening. I’ve only watched bits and pieces but beware, there are major spoilers here!
Whoa – thanks for the comprehensive summary. A post to be bookmarked!

Esther a wonderful haul and a great post as always by you that captures the essence of Richard.. I like the third suit too although the monochrome purple suit he just looks dashing and so debonair in. I definitely want to see this movie and hope it makes it to American shores. I think he looks pretty relaxed in your screen shots too. I’m not a mother but I can tell this film will be very emotional and gut wrenching.

I didn’t like the weave thing of that monochrome suit but he did rock that suit too, yes! That colour is good on him.
Yeah, first project of his in ages that I really, really want to see.

Elle a dû arriver à le faire sortir de sa réserve, malheureusement trop souvent habituelle (depuis ” le Hobbit” de Peter Jackson ou “The Crucible”). Peut-être pourra t’on visionner autre chose que le minimum syndical… Assurer la direction d’un film de qualité et y tourner le rôle principal reste un exploit personnel pour Julie Delpy, dont peu d’acteurs sont capables.

Squirrel, yes I completely agree with you and I really love Delpy as a director and writer. I think he gained far more from her than she from him but that’s ok.

Well I would see The Lodge with a friend but not by myself. If My Zoe makes it to my neck of the woods I already have a day planned around it.
The purple suit: It is much umm err tighter on his torso so when he was sitting it was for me wow just heaven. All three looks were contemporary and he has an amazing body that virtually anything he wears looks great on him.

I really appreciate you doing this!
I love that pic from his instagram, leaning against the wall. He did that pose a long time ago ad I’m not sure we’ve seen it in the interval:

I’ve also really liked the poses with Delpy. (Big change from the uncomfortable Sundance pix with Riley Keough, for instance)

My pleasure. 😊
I love that leaning pose too!
Yeah, he seems more comfortable with Delpy, undoubtedly because they had much more to do (and talk about) together than he did with Keough. Also, I have a suspicion there is more depth there with Delpy.

The bioethics bill has been under consideration in the National Assembly since 24 September. It is only necessary to follow the debates that this subject opens in the French media (((besides I advise you to listen all the points of view, to touch its complexity …))), to understand the interest of this type of film. Do not confine “My Zoe” to sci-fi movies or uninteresting family melodrama.
