First, my apologies for not having a post up last Monday. I was finishing up a very, very busy weekend and just ran out of time.
DADDIO FULL TRAILER
Sony Pictures Classics has delivered a full trailer for Christy Hall's Daddio starring Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn. This follows a teaser that was released a few weeks ago. The TFF #50 selection is set for a limited open on June 28th.
Here's the IMDb description for those who didn't see the film at the fest:
"A woman taking a cab ride from JFK engages in a conversation with the taxi driver about the important relationships in their lives."
LOOKS AT CANNES/TFF POSSIBLES
With the announcement of films for the Cannes Film Fest have come some promotional materials allowing us to begin to see images for those films and perhaps some for films that will then play TFF #51, Here's a couple:
Barry Keoghan in Andrea Arnold's Bird:
And a photo of Jeremy Strong and Sebastian Stan from Ali Abbasi's The Apprentice:
From Guy Maddin, Evan and Galen Johnson's Rumours:
PARTICIPANT AND NETFLIX CHOICES COULD IMPACT TFF
Word this week that Participant, the production company behind such TFF fare as Roma, Spotlight, Flee, The Look of Silence and numerous others will be closing up shop. Meanwhile, it was reported that Netflix is shifting focus in terms of the films it produces and will be less auteur focused. Netflix has been among the most represented film producer/distributors at Telluride for the past decade.
Both circumstances could have a real effect on TFF programming.
Both stories were reported at World of Reel. Here's the Participant story and here's the Netflix story.
