Love TIFF or hate it? King Westers share their views on the film festival

TIFF started on Thursday, and King Street (from University to Peter) has been turned into a pedestrian-only walkway filled with festival volunteers, fans lining up for star sightings and slightly annoyed-looking businessmen trying to navigate the crowds. We decided to ask people who live or work in the area (a minority when you factor in all the tourists, photographers and TIFF employees) what they think of the festival, which is something of a polarizing topic. Here’s what they had to say.
