Oscars #94 are in the book and so it's time to get serious about potential titles for TFF# 49. To that end, I'm parsing this week's post from Indiewire that names their 50 hoped for films for the Cannes Film Fest, which as many MTFB readers know, is often the starting line for films that make The SHOW. So...here are films from the Indiewire list that seem to me to be Telluride potentials:
Armageddon Time/James Gray
Broker/Hirokazu Kore-eda
Close/Lukas Dhont
Crimes of the Future/David Cronenberg
Holy Spider/Ali Abbasi
One Fine Morning/Mia Hansen-Love
RMN/Cristian Mungiu
She Said/Maria Schrader
Showing Up/Kelly Reichardt
The Son/Florian Zeller
Sparta/Ulrich Seidel
Tori and Lokita/The Dardennes Brothers
The Way of the Wind/Terrence Malick
The Whale/Darren Aronofsky
Women Talking/Sarah Polley
PETITE MAMAN HAS A TRAILER FOR THE U.S.
Celine Sciamma's critically acclaimed Petite Maman, which was a part of the TFF #48 lineup, has a U.S. trailer as of this week. The film's poster can be seen above and the film drops in the U.S. on April 22nd.
Here's the trailer:
MORE KILLERS FOR YA
Word from The Tulsa World (after a heads up from Jordan Ruimy's World of Reel) that Martin Scorsese will be returning to Oklahoma in May to shoot additional footage for Killers of the Flower Moon.
As close readers of MTFB know, I was a background player for KOTFM in August. Reading between the lines of the Tulsa World story, it doesn't seem likely that I'll be called back for the new scenes.
Of course it is my great hope that Killers plays Telluride this year. I will volunteer to be present as a "cast member" for each of its screenings at The SHOW. A friend of mine who also worked the film gifted me with a cast/crew baseball cap this week. You might see me sporting it on Labor Day weekend.
WORLD OF REEL SURVEY THE BEST OF THE 70'S
Speaking of Ruimy's World of Reel, he posted a survey of folk about the best films of the 1970's on Mar. 31.
Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather topped the list.
Somewhat unbelievably, I was included in the survey. Others that were also counted included:
David Ansen/Newsweek
Peter DeBruge/Variety
Scott Feinberg/The Hollywood Reporter
Peter Howell/The Toronto Star
Larry Karaszewski/Screenwriter, The People vs. Larry Flynt
Dave Karger/Turner Classic Movies
Eric Kohn/Indiewire
Todd McCarthy/Deadline
Daniel Waters/Screenwriter, Heathers
