CANNES IS NEAR



More Cannes news this past weekend as it was announced that "Zuluz' will close the fest.  Additionally, we have confirmation that April 18th is the date for the announcement of the majority of the lineup.  Cannes traditionally has unveiled a number of films that then are a part of the Telluride lineup 3 1/2 months later.

Here's The Hollywood Reporter story on the closing film "Zulu":

RUDDERLESS SHOOT



And finally, the Oklahoma set film "Rudderless", directorial debut of William H. Macy, is reported to begin shooting in late April with the 20th rumored to be the start date.  An extras casting call was held last Saturday at a mall in OKC.

Reportedly, there is still one fairly major role to be cast.


More on Thursday...
