Green Book, the Peter Farrelly-directed film about a Jamaican-American pianist touring the Deep South in the 1960s, has massively boosted its Oscars chances after taking the top prize at the Toronto film festival.

Toronto’s People’s Choice award for documentary went to Free Solo, a film about death-defying mountain climber Alex Honnold, directed by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin.
