Wednesday, Jan 27 @ 7 PM
Austin Studios Screening Room (1901 E. 51st St.)
About the film:
THE HAPPY POET follows a one-time poet’s attempt to run a successful vegetarian foodstand despite pressure to sell something easier—hot dogs. Complications with the foodstand jeopardize budding friendships as well as Bill’s sense of self-worth and faith in humanity.
About the Narratives-in-Progress series
Filmmakers screen their “rough cuts” (or “near-fine-cuts”) for a filmmaker-member audience, and receive constructive comments and feedback. The meetings are moderated by experienced Austin film professionals. Participants will be expected to agree to confidentiality regarding the film and the comments received, as the films to be screened have not been finalized. Read more here>>
I somehow missed this completely… it didn’t get on my radar at all. It looks absolutely amazing – and IFC Films is releasing it in theaters in February 2010. Red Riding is described as, “The search for a killer told through three different points of views.” Wow.
*UPDATE
“Red Riding” Roadshow (from indieWIRE)
Coming February 5th, for one week only, IFC FIlms will present “Red Riding: Special Roadshow Edition,” screening the entire 305 minute trilogy at their New York IFC Center. The films will be broken up by a pair of intermissions at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. showings. There will be only be fourteen performances, according to an IFC announcement today.
The three separate “Red Riding” films, which screened last fall at the Telluride Film Festival, were directed by Julian Jarrold, James Marsh and Anand Tucker and written by Tony Grisoni, based on the novels by David Peace. The films will open with separate admissions on February 12th at IFC Center and will alos screen separately at Landmark’s Nuart in Los Angeles. [Eugene Hernandez]
