The reason why I like receiving this press release – is because usually those who assist in Sundance Institute’ screenwriting labs – are the ones who’ll I’ll end up treasuring – here is a most recent list: Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden’s HALF NELSON, Dito Montiel’s A GUIDE TO RECOGNIZING YOUR SAINTS, Hilary Brougher’s STEPHANIE DALEY, Goran Dukic’s WRISTCUTTERS, Michael Kang’s THE MOTEL, and Cam Archer’s WILD TIGERS I HAVE KNOWN...

With more than 550 scores to his credit, Ennio Morricone has established himself deeply in the subconcious, if not the hearts, of movie goers worldwide.

Laurence Dunmore is going back in time, again. The director of The Libertine, has been tapped to helm a retelling of Sir Gallahad's quest for the Holy Grail titled Mortal Armor: The Legend of Galahad.

The project is penned by Joel Gross and overseen by producer Gale Ann Hurd. Production is set to begin next summer in the U.K.
All it takes is one snapshot to ruin a plot line, unveil a secret, or in this case, make us (hardcore filmgoers) count the days until a film’s release. I could care less about paparazzi stuff, but this one has a particular story behind it. Imagine you’re traveling around the world, happen to (literally) turn a street corner in some far away land and come face to face upon a film production with not one, not two, not three, but four familiar faces. I couldn’t help but post this one - great picture of a film that we are all looking forward to see. The Darjeeling Limited is the story of three brothers who journey through India.
