The derby for which distributor was going to get the rights to triple award winning title from Cannes (I Killed My Mother) has come to a close and in the same measure, Here Media announced the launch of Here Films - thus putting an end to the confusing co-label of Here! and Regent Releasing. For those who haven't noticed, Here has been slowly doing away with the strictly GL&T label and encompassing a more 'festival fave' orientated direction – just recently they released Best Foreign Language Film winner Departures and Cannes UCR Jury prize winner Tokyo Sonata.

With Geoffrey Gilmore in the portrait (his work will only be felt next year), Tribeca is making another great decision in shedding some of that baby fat. At eight years of age, the cuts make the festival leaner, less desperate for films and "more precise" in its programming. Scaling back to a sound number of 86, today's batch of 38 fill up the World Narrative and Documentary Comp selections and Discovery sections. Today's announcements demonstrates that relationships with filmmakers continue to flourish (I noticed a couple of names from the previous years).
