The Hollywood Reporter has put together their list of 77 "most anticipated" films for 2020 and it continues the trend begun at the end of the 2019 to offer some films that one would think will be under consideration and/or will be offered as a possible choice for TFF #47.
THR has organized their list chronologically, at least to the extent possible. Some highly anticipated films are not yet dated for release and are either listed as TBD's or not listed at all.
Soooo...TFF #47 options? In chronological order:
The Trial of the Chicago 7 (10/7)
Stillwater (11/6)
Dune 12/18
News of the World (12/25)
Mank (TBD)
Hillbilly Elegy (TBD)
On the Rocks (TBD)
Half tempted to include Ridley Scott's The Last Duel and Ben Wheatley's Rebecca remake.
OSCAR 2021 THOUGHTS
Variety's Brent Lang and Mark Malkin got into the early Oscar prediction sweepstakes this week with an article posted on Tuesday. They peer into their crystal ball to contemplate which films might be in serious contention for Academy Award glory a year from now.
Consequently, here's a look at their list of films through the prism of what seems the most likely Telluride players in the order presented in the article:
Ron Howard's Hillbilly Elegy
Sofia Coppola's On the Rocks
Joel Coen's MacBeth
Aaron Sorkin's The Trial of the Chicago 7
Francis Lee's Ammonite
Kimberly Pierce's This Is Jane
David Fincher's Mank
SALE TIME
As a public service, this reminder that TFF #47 passes go on sale on Sunday, March 1. Here's the reminder directly from the TFF #47 website:
AND NOW: BERLIN...
The 70th Berlin International Film Festival is opening tonight and will run through Mar. 1st. And if past os prologue, you can expect that a film or two that will premiere there will probably end up in southwest Colorado in early September.
Last year it was Varda by Agnes. In 2018 it was Dovlatov. In 2017: Hostages and The Other Side of Hope. 2016: Fire at Sea and Things to Come.
The 2020 edition hs a number of films that offer tantalizing possibilities for Telluride programmers.
Indiewire posted a list of 15 films that will play the Berlinale that they say are Their most anticipated. Among that list, I can point to a few that could be TFF #47 potentials:
Agnieszka Holland's Charlatan
Rithy Pahn's Irradiated
Matteo Garrone's Pinocchio
Phillipe Garrel's The Salt of Tears
Abel Ferrara's Siberia
Christian Petzold's Undine
