TIFF 2014: Keira Knightley and Benedict Cumberbatch take over The Imitation Game red carpet (maybe the world)
See all the shots from The Imitation Game red carpet »
Some celebs just appear right at home on a red carpet, and we’ve always considered Keira Knightley one of those rare few. The actress was at TIFF 2014 last night to premiere her film The Imitation Game alongside costars Benedict Cumberbatch and Matthew Goode. (By the way, we thought the screams that erupted when Channing Tatum walked the red carpet the night before were insane, but Cumberbatch fever is truly something else.) The actor wore a sleek blue suit and glasses that came on and off throughout the evening, because variety!
The film was bought by The Weinstein Company for $7 million (!) which is now rumoured to be the highest price paid ever for U.S. cumbrights on a movie (!!). We can’t even wrap our heads around that, so let’s focus on Knightley’s pretty, pretty dress instead. The actress wore a breathtaking off-white, short-sleeved neoprene embroidered dress with a silk tulle skirt and paired it with silk pink heels with bows on the back. (Read that sentence again and tell us it doesn’t sound straight out of a Disney movie. We dare you.) Knightley will be out and about again tonight, promoting her other TIFF film, Laggies, because she is a fairy princess who’s taking over the world, one Chanel dress at a time.
