ANATOMY OF A FALL POSTER AND TRAILER
Ahead of its expected appearance at Telluride next week, distributor Neon has released a poster (above) and a trailer.
The film won this year's Palme d'Or at Cannes and stars Sandra Huller (Toni Erdmann). IMDb describes it as follows:
"A woman is suspected of her husband's murder, and their blind son faces a moral dilemma as the sole witness."
Here's the official trailer from YouTube:
LENNY KRAVITZ SINGS FOR RUSTIN
Variety reports that singer/songwriter Lenny Kravitz has recorded an original song for the biopic Rustin. I expect the film to be playing in Telluride over Labor Day weekend.
Rustin stars Colman Domingo as Bayard Rustin, the true life civil and human rights activist that helped to create the 1963 March on Washington. Domingo is already getting some Oscar buzz as Clayton Davis at Variety is currently predicting that he will be one of the five nominees.
Rustin is directed by George C. Wolfe and was written by Oscar winner Dustin Lance Black and Julian Breece.
Rustin is due in theaters on Nov. 17th.
OVERLOOKED POSSIBILTY
Still from Occupied City
I neglected to mention a week and a half ago that Steve McQueen's huge documentary (listed at IMDb at 246 min.) about the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam during World War II was announced for the New York fest without any premiere designation. As it has not screened anywhere else since its debut at Cannes last May, we can probably expect to see it at Telluride.
The NYFF announcement says that the film will be screened there with an intermission.
McQueen has a solid history with TFF having screened Hunger, Shame and 12 Years a Slave at the fest.
