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.

eOne to Give A New Life to ‘Jolene’

For the remainder of the 2010 film year, you might have a trio of possibilities to see actress Jessica Chastain in action. There's the Terrence Malick film that the the whole world is waiting for, there's John Madden's The Debt (a late December release) and finally, eOne has saved Dan Ireland’s Jolene from obscurity.

Tracking Shot September 2010: Yellow, Wuthering Heights, Super 8, Return, My Week with Marilyn, Drive and Contagion

Across the pond, I'm liking the sound of the new Michelle Williams' film - a take on Marilyn Monroe while on a 1957 set with Laurence Olivier to be played by Kenneth Branagh. 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.

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. Looking at the list below, there is a little something for everyone: feel good films, offbeat comedies, specialty genre items, fact based thrillers and then probable award mention stuff that take up the top four spots.
