Key Players in the 2012 Cannes Film Market: Inferno Ent.

Date:

Sales agent and Prod co. Inferno Ent.’s Jim Seibel and Bill Johnson must totally be stoked at finding one of their own in the Main Competition this year. Andrew Dominik’s Killing Them Softly (aka Cogan’s Trade) will have photogs going bezerk for Brad Pitt and the film might just pan out to be this year’s Drive for being so badass. On the horizon we have Allen Hughes breaking away from his brother with Broken City and Andrew Niccol takes on fan favorite The Host.

Ken Russell’s The Devils – 2010 Fantasia International Film Festival

Iconic director Ken Russell was in town to receive a lifetime achievement award from Fantasia for his 50-plus years in the business, a career that has spawned many genre classics including Altered States, Gothic, and The Lair of the White Worm. But it was the little-seen and hard to find The Devils from 1971 that proved to be Russell's most controversial work, and Fantasia managed to snag a copy to be screened on Russell's big night. In the video, Russell discusses the true story behind the film and receives his award with the grace befitting one of the great filmmakers of all time.
