As always, the action is opening weekend-heavy with Galas Argo, The Master, Anna Karenina and The Place Beyond the Pines and The Springbreakers all running in tandem Friday night. Saturday night will see the star-studded Galas for Silver Linings Playbook, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Cloud Atlas and Thanks for Sharing. Meanwhile towards the end of the Festival, those of you who missed-out the first time (as is expected) will have your chance to see additional screenings.
