Other films
receiving gala premieres include Manchester by the Sea, starring Casey Affleck and Michelle Williams, A Monster Calls starring Sigourney Weaver and Felicity Jones, and Their Finest, with Gemma Arterton and Sam Claflin.
Every film
receiving a gala premiere brings the audience to its feet (at least, once the houselights go up and the spotlight shines on the stars sitting in the mezzanine), even so - so films that no one particularly adores such as this year's festival opener, «The Fifth Estate.»
