Despite being loosely based on the invention of the vibrator, Hysteria isn’t very risqué, though it’s pleasurable enough. Hugh Dancy stars as Mortimer Granville, a Victorian-era doctor who cures women’s mental ailments by using his fingers to... umm... provide a deep tissue massage.

When Nadine Labaki’s Where Do We Go Now? won the People’s Choice Award at last year’s TIFF, it shouldn’t have been that surprising.

The rapid rise and fall of the first openly gay rock star is a fascinating story, but unfortunately it’s clumsily told in Keiran Turner’s doc. The film is packed with great interviews and archival footage but held back by badly integrated animated interludes and heavy-handed narration. Nevertheless, it’s a heartbreaking study of fame, hype and homophobia.
