Class of 2011? Ten High Profile Films Pushed Back to Next Year
With All Good Things and Biutiful confirming their December dates, Tree of Life apparently falling back into this "calender" year and Peter Weir's The Way Back looking at a Telluride opening, there are a batch of films (ten listed below) that are not entirely ready and we are not entirely sure why.
TIFF 2010 Buyer’s Club: #1. John Cameron Mitchell’s Rabbit Hole
And here we have it - the top twenty acquisition titles that will be made available at the 2010 Toronto Int. Film Festival --- and that's only from the titles that are actually being shown.
