TORONTO (AP) — Showcasing his most personal movie yet, Chris Rock premiered his third feature film directing effort, “Top Five,” at the Toronto International Film Festival.

“Top Five” debuted Saturday night at the festival, where it was received warmly by a boisterous audience. Rock wrote, directed and stars in the film, in which he plays a famous comedian trying — and failing — to transition into serious movies.
