List Worthy Reasons…An indie addiction drama from the director who gave us My Sister’s Keeper, The Notebook and John Q? Yup – the Cassavetes name can now be re-associated with independent film. Alpha Dog (the first time where I really took notice of Ben Foster) was Nick Cassavetes’ more significant film of his filmography, and my thinking is with a rather large ensemble pitching in and a reunion with Foster for this to generate plenty of buzz.

Release Date/Status?: In the final stages of production, this will definitely be ready for the fall festival season.
