Early art for a poster for "The Master"
NEW CAST MEMBERS FOR PT ANDERSON PROJECT
Variety reported last night additions to the cast for what apparently is now officially entitled "The Master," Paul Thomas Anderson's first film since 2007's brilliant "There Will Be Blood." (Best Film of the Aughts).
Already cast were Philip Seymour Hoffman, Joaquin Phoenix and Amy Adams in the film that explores the genesis of a modern day belief system said to be not unlike Scientology. Added cast members announced last night are Josh Close and Fiona Dourif. The post from the PT Anderson fan site Cigarettes and Red Vines is here:

Various sources have it released in 2012 or 2013. I'll be following it as I think it will be on the short list of Telluride possible films for TFF #39 or #40...

WEINSTEIN SETS RELEASE DATES
The Weinstein Company has established release dates for four films that it has and I expect will be pushed in various ways for Oscar success. The four films: "The Artist," "The Iron Lady," "Coriolanus," and "My Week with Marilyn." All four are on our Telluride watch list and, according to the article from The Playlist, all four have dates that would accommodate a Telluride screening. I would expect that 2 of the 4 will end up in the San Juans and that the most likely is "The Artist." As to the other three...I'd bet one of them also shows at The SHOW, but at this point I don't have any feel for which of the three is the most likely.
