NOW THAT OSCAR 2021 IS OVER...
GoldDerby.com wasted zero time getting a prospective list of films that could be in the Oscar hunt 10 months from now assuming The Academy doesn't move the probable dates again for Oscar #94.
Looking at their list, a few jump out as possible TFF #48 choices (or are, at least on my wish list and/or radar):
Andrew Dominik's Blonde
Mike Mills' C'mon C'mon
Denis Villenueve's Dune
Will Sharpe's The Electrical Life of Louis Wain
Michael Showalter's The Eyes of Tammy Faye
Wes Anderson's The French Dispatch
Taika Waititi's Next Goal Wins
Guillermo Del Toro's Nightmare Alley
Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog
CANNES COUNTDOWN-POSSIBLE TITLES
Variety ran down a number of films that it suggests have a reasonable shot at making the lineup for the Cannes Film Festival now scheduled to take place from July 6-17. If the fest happens on those dates then the Cannes/Telluride connection that we have seen over the last several years could well be in place to recur.
So here are some of the speculated (and not so speculated) titles that Variety mentions that might make the Cannes/Telluride double play (some of which are mentioned in the Oscar segment above):
Wes Anderson's The French Dispatch
Sean Penn's Flag Day
Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog
Paul Schrader's The Card Counter
Jacques Audiard's Paris 13th District
Asghar Farhadi's A Hero
Mia Hansen-Love's Bergman Island
Ari Folman's Where Is Anne Frank
Cannes will announce its lineup on May 27th.
THERE IS NO EVIL TRAILER AND DATE
Mohammad Rasoulof would have had another film play at Telluride in 2020 had the festival taken place. His Berlin Golden Bear winning There Is No Evil was an official selection of TFF #47. Rasoulof previously screened Manuscripts Don't Burn and A Man of Integrity at TFF.
Now word comes from distributor Kino Lorber that the film will be released on May 14th. To underscore that announcement, Kino Lorber released a trailer for the film this week. Here it is thanks to YouTube:
NEVER GONNA SNOW AGAIN TRAILER RELEASED
Ahead of its New York premiere this weekend, Kino Lorber has released a trailer for Poland's official nominee for the just past Oscar for Best International Feature, Malgorzata Szumowska and Michal Englert's Never Gonna Snow Again. The film was an official selection of TFF #47.
The description of the film from IMDb says:
"Zhenia, a Russian-speaking immigrant from the East works as a masseur in Poland and becomes a guru-like figure in a wealthy gated community of his clients."
Indiewire reports that the film will be released in July.
