Sunday's Babe: Penelope Cruz

Penelope Cruz among dozens of stars who came out to take part in this year's TIFF

The Toronto International Film Festival opened on Sept. 7 and closed Saturday with an awards reception at the Hilton Hotel Toronto. Find out who won by visiting the TIFF web site.

There was quite a bit of buzz at the festival surrounding Penelope Cruz's performance in Pedro Almodóvar's satiric family comedy, "Volver".

"Volver" plot summary: Two sisters learn that the bonds of family don't always end after death in this gentle, observational comedy drama, with heavy doses of magic realism, that marks celebrated Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar's sixteenth feature. Almodovar describes the work as "a meeting of Mildred Pierce and Arsenic and Old Lace".
