Helena Bonham Carter is not exactly visible in a current pair of film releases, yet she's at the Toronto Film Festival to promote both: Tim Burton's Corpse Bride and the new Wallace and Grommit film. Always fun to talk to, in Toronto she cheerfully discussed the benefits of sleeping with a director -- Burton is her better half -- not that that will necessarily guarantee a role in said better half's film . . .
