Seconds after hitting the red carpet outside NeueHouse Hollywood on Thursday night, Jennifer Garner stopped posing momentarily to ask the row of photographers a quick question (or two).
“What do you think? Is she doing a good job?” Garner asked, referring to the woman standing to her left, power publicist and Lede Company co-founder and co-ceo Meredith O’Sullivan. Garner then turned to face O’Sullivan, adjusted the lapels of her black tuxedo jacket and faux-straightened her white dress shirt, like a publicist might do for a client ahead of a gala like the one about to unfold.
The gesture perfectly telegraphed how the tables turned for the special event as Garner showed up to honor O’Sullivan, her longtime publicist and “dear friend,” someone used to shining a light on her A-list clients, not the other way around.

15 Documentaries That Could Shake Up the Oscar Race at Tiff 2018, from Michael Moore to Quincy Jones
Every year for 13 years, Thom Powers leads his Tiff documentary programmers through an enormous number of submissions to cull their final selection.
This year, more of them are for sale than ever before, including new work from indie auteurs Werner Herzog and Errol Morris, at a time when not many narrative films are luring buyers. “I count at least 13 documentaries for sale represented by significant players,” said Powers, who also programs influential November festival Doc NYC. “Coming off this year’s summer of blockbuster documentaries, a lot of people are coming with their checkbooks.”
While many expect those summer hits “Won’t You Be My Neighbor,” “Rbg,” and “Three Identical Strangers” to land three Oscar nomination slots, there are at least three high-profile Oscar contenders playing Tiff — possibly several more — along with many movies about women, global politics, and advancing technology. Something overtly political could hit a nerve before the midterm elections,...
