Toronto #4: And the winner is...

The winner of the Academy Award for Best Picture will be Ben Affleck's tense new thriller "Argo." How do I know this?

The "unknown entity" appeared without warning and after a failed attempt to communicate, fled the scene. Tom stopped short of saying "alien" to describe the encounter, but I think it's safe to say that whatever he saw, it was pretty damned freaky. It sure can't be mistaken for anything terrestrial; like a horse pressing its nose up to the camera and the lens causing foreshortening. As it totally does not look like that at all.
