Icarus Sees the ‘Light’ in Patricio Guzman’s Doc

Documentary specialist Icarus Films have grabbed the rights to Patricio Guzmán's latest - a Cannes preemed documentary film, that is heading to TIFF next week and will be set up with a 2011 theatrical release.

Roadside Attractions Melts for Ondi Timoner’s ‘Cool It’

Cool It is heading to TIFF next week, and the producers behind Ondi Timoner's latest documentary film won't have to sign a deal in the wee small hours in the morning, as Roadside Attractions have preemptively grabbed the rights to the "eco-docu" and are setting it with an eventual Fall release.

Exclusive: Poster One Sheet for Attenberg

You can call IONCINEMA.com the "all things Attenberg channel." We profiled Athina Rachel Tsangari in our special American New Wave 25 series, we've updated you with films stills, we've highlighted how her film was selected at Venice and TIFF, and now in preparation for Venice (which officially begins today with the Black Swan reviews) we have the poster one sheet for Attenberg.

Weinstein Co. is onboard My Week with Marilyn, which should begin shooting soon in the U.K. Andrea Arnold's Wuthering Heights still needs its Heathcliff and supporting cast. I imagine that long list is a short list by now, and that we should hear some casting news probably during TIFF with filming, at best, beginning at the very end of the month.
