Toronto cinephiles! Plan your Fridays accordingly, because the University of Toronto's Cinema Studies Student Union has released their winter schedule for their impeccably programmed Free Friday Films series and their latest-line up continues the tradition of an eclectic mix of art-house classics, genre gems and intriguing obscurities. As always every film screens on FILM, usually in 35mm at Innis Town Hall at the University of Toronto and as always every film is FREE!

The complete list of titles are below. Note the presence of two rarely screened Hong Kong slapstick comedies (one directed by John Woo, the other with effects by Tom Savini) and of course the almighty ROBOT JOX.
