Guillermo del Toro's film school will be back in session in Toronto this summer when the Oscar-winning director hosts a lecture series on Canadian horror movies at TIFF Lightbox. The July 9 to 13 curated showcase for TIFF Cinematheque, entitled From Rabid to Skinamarink: Canadian Movie Madness, will see the maestro of monsters take audiences through a series of iconic genre pics like David Cronenberg's sophomore feature Rabid (1977), Vincenzo Natali's Cube (1997) and John Fawcett's supernatural fright pic Ginger Snaps starring Katharine Isabelle (2000) to reveal and explain their horror genre beats. More from The Hollywood Reporter Edge of Seventeen: How the K-Pop Powerhouse Is Reinventing Itself 'A Light That Never Goes Out' Is a Cannes Debut Opus on Outcasts, Depression, Music, and Hope Netflix, BBC Studios Team on Comedy Podcast 'The Big Pitch With Jimmy Carr' The Mexican director will also explain the mechanics of Bruce McDonald's Pontypool (2008), and Kyle Edward Ball's feature directorial debut, Skinamarink (2022) for their own visual and emotional impacts on audiences. Del Toro has made Toronto a second home after Los Angeles. And the Canadian city has hosted production for a number of his movies, including Mimic, the Oscar-winning The Shape of Water, Crimson Peak, Pacific Rim, Nightmare Alley and more recently the Netflix adaptation of Frankenstein. His TV series The Strain was also shot locally. That proximity has allowed del Toro to develop a close association with the Toronto International Film Festival and its year-round headquarters, TIFF Lightbox. His master classes on filmmaking techniques often coincide with production on his latest movie projects in Toronto. And del Toro has hosted an earlier lecture series at TIFF Lightbox on Mexican cinema, Alfred Hitchcock films and film noir pics. The prolific director's creative ties to Toronto also includes key positions in his locally-shot movies, besides himself as director and Hollywood leads, being filled by Canadians down to longtime producer and collaborator J. Miles Dale, the production designer, costume designer, editors and other technical posts. TIFF Lightbox and del Toro have also partnered on a free, upcoming outdoor screening of The Shape of Water as part of the film festival's 50th anniversary this summer.

Mads for it! Pedersen shoots to fourth Giro stage win
Mads Pedersen, the peloton's 'Great Dane', is turning the Giro d'Italia into his own benefit race, powering to his fourth stage victory in the 108th edition. The former world champion's fourth win in Friday's 13th stage may have been his best yet as he sprinted on a brutal uphill finish to Vicenza to pip another strongman superstar Wout van Aerty in a lung-busting haul to the line. Meanwhile, the tremendous young race leader Isaac del Toro continued to astound just behind them as he battled home a couple of seconds adrift in third place to grab more bonus seconds to help pad out his overall advantage to 38 seconds. "What an incredible Giro this is. Timing my effort was dictated by instinct. I had to open up on the right side close to the barriers. So I went a bit earlier than I wanted to," 2019 world road race champ Pedersen said. "On such a hard day and a finale like this, everyone has burning legs in the finale. It was definitely nice to have seen it before. "I'm happy with this win and adding another 50 points for the Maglia Ciclamino (purple points jersey). I'm overwhelmed with winning again." There was another tremendous effort from top Australian sprinter Kaden Groves, who worked wonders just to stay in the hunt for a second stage win, only to be buried in the final, crushing uphill burst to the Monte Berico sanctuary and eventually coming home nearly half-a-minute down. As the riders neared the finish of the 180km ride from Rovigo, Pedersen was fourth when he took off to blast into a lead which he clung on to grimly with van Aert on his tail while the bold effort for glory from the 21-year-old del Toro also fell short. "He's a crazy strong rider - he's a monster, I have no words," said Pedersen's admiring Lidl-Trek sprint lieutenant, Mathias Vacek. Tudor Pro's Michael Storer, Australia's top hope in the GC, lost a few more seconds in the push towards the line but he's still 14th in the overall classification, 3 minutes 37 seconds down on del Toro. The big question now is how UAE Team Emirates are going to handle having the top two in the race, with their designated team leader Juan Ayuso losing a few seconds to the brilliant del Toro by the day. At 38 seconds behind, Spaniard Ayuso may still be considered their best hope at this stage with the high mountains still to come, but del Toro continues to surprise daily. In third place now is Italian Antonio Tiberi, 1:18 back, with Simon Yates fourth, 1:20 behind, and Primoz Roglic fifth, 1:35 behind. The mostly flat 14th stage on Saturday follows a 195km route from Treviso over the border into Slovenia with a finish in Nova Gorica with Groves expected to be in contention this time.
