Ben Affleck and Jeremy Renner in "The Town." Will that town be Telluride???The 37th Telluride Film Festival is now only 16 days away and anticipation is building. Yesterday Jay A. Fernandez of The Hollywood Reporter had a big article with title guesses... Here's that link again:
This afternoon, Kristopher Tapley at Incontention.com had a big post about Venice, Toronto, New York and (in the 5th paragraph, by extension) Telluride. That link is here:
Putting the information together and doing some deductive reasoning you can come up with a possible Telluride list that would be potentially phenomenal. Two things stand out from the Tapley article. His comment that you can deduct the from the Toronto list and that Fernandez may have given away much of the lineup yesterday. So from that basis, what do you end up with??? Here are possibles that seem to be the logical extension of that information:
"Another Year" from Mike Leigh
"Biutiful" from Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu
"Black Swan" from Darren Aronofsky (that also relies on inferences from Anne Thompson at Indiewire)
"The Illusionist" from Sylvan Chomet
"Inside Job" from Charles Ferguson
"The King's Speech" from Tom Hooper
"Miral" from Julian Schnabel (at Venice but could overlap and we've been saying it for months)
"Never Let Me Go" from Mark Romanek
"Tamara Drewe" from Stephen Frears
"The Town" from Ben Affleck (at Venice but could overlap)
"127 Hours" from Danny Boyle (you gotta think it plays TFF like Slumdog did)
"Casino Jack" from George Hickenlooper
"You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger" from Woody Allen
Tapley's article does make it pretty clear that Eastwood's "Hereafter," Goldwyn's "Conviction," Madden's "The Debt," Joffe's "Brighton Rock," Redford's "The Conspirator," and Mitchell's "Rabbit Hole" will NOT play in Telluride. And, of course, we had already pretty much ruled out Coppola's "Somewhere," Taymor's "The Tempest," and Fincher's "The Social Network."
Not on anyone's list anywhere...The Coen's "True Grit" and Malick's "The Tree of Life."
But if the above list is anywhere close...WOW!
Finally, a bunch of internet traffic agog today over the trailer for Aronofsky's "Black Swan". Here's the youtube link to it:
16 days...
