They pretty much have what looks to be a great year end lineup intact for the 07' calender and now Sony Pictures Classics have in my opinion strengthened their 08' line-up with a film (that I recently caught at the Toronto Film Festival) that should be popular fair among those looking for some adult tit for tat.
Look for Ira Sachs' Married Life to make a splash somewhere in 08', but moviegoers can get one more view via the upcoming New York Film Festival. The film offers solid perfs, and draws comparisons to what Hitchcock gave us: humor tied in with plot to commit a little murder.
Sachs is of course the director behind the Sundance hit Forty Shades of Blue and this project formerly titled “Marriage” is and based on British pulp mystery John Bingham novel “Five Roundabouts to Heaven”.
Set in San Francisco in 1949. It's the story of a middle-aged man who is married, and who falls in love with another woman, but he's such a gentle figure, so he decides that to divorce his wife would humiliate her too much, so it's better to kill her.
