Baby Clyde's TIFF Diary #2: "The Woman King", Oprah, and "Sidney"

My trip so far has been somewhat more mundane. Saturday, I had 5 films to see but spent most of my time visiting various electrical shops trying to find a US/UK travel adapter (I idiotically left the half dozen I own back in London).
