Bridge of Floating Dreams
Director: Catherine Breillat // Writer: Brian Jones
Shortly before her latest title, the autobiographical Abuse of Weakness hit it’s limited release in August 2014, provocateur Catherine Breillat announced she would be directing material written by someone other than herself for the first time in her four decades of filmmaking. It appears that Breillat has left behind her series of fairy tale adaptations indefinitely and is branching out with her first English language feature with this Japanese/Australian co-production, a 1960′s period piece titled Bridge of Floating Dreams. Breillat compared the script to her 1999 film Romance, so expect profound erotic flourishes.
Cast: Not available.
Producer: The late David Hannay, Richard Barnes and Candide Production France’s François Cohen-Séat.
U.S. Distributor: Rights available.
Release Date: At the time this was announced, work was still going into the script and further funding needed to be secured. Breillat doesn’t work very quickly,...

Apted’s film gives audiences a rare glimpse inside a premier Japanese lens factory and features interviews with celebrated photographers and cinematographers like Stephen Goldblatt, Greg Gorman, Richard Barnes, and Laura El-Tantawy in his study of the relationship between the artist and their tools.
Bending the Light premieres at the Traverse City Film Festival on Aug. 3.

For the first time in her 40-year career, controversial and renowned French director Catherine Breillat has agreed to direct a film she has not personally written, signing onto the Australian co-production Bridge of Floating Dreams. Penned by Australian Brian Jones, Bridge of Floating Dreams follows his own experiences as a young man who falls in love with a Japanese woman during his travels in the 60.s. This relationship introduces him to the mizu-shobai . an outrageous and now extinct sub-world of Japanese nightlife. Breillat is well known for her clinical, bleak style as well as for exploring female sexuality in her work with unconventional explicitness. She has been described as a .porno auteuriste.. .My story has explicit erotica, sure,. says Jones. .But it.s the opposite of bleak and clinical. That.s why I was initially dubious about sending it to her. We took a chance and sent to her anyway.

R&B star Trey Songz has been hit with an $18 million lawsuit over his song "Bottoms Up". Chiefs at Doc Mob Records allege they hired producer Milton James to produce the original, copyrighted track for their company.
James later teamed with producer Kane Beatz for the song, which was eventually released by Songz and Nicki Minaj last year. The lawsuit, filed in New York earlier this month on behalf of Doc Mob Records, executive Derrick Price and IHip Hop Music, claims "Bottoms Up" was contained on Songz's hit album "Passion, Pain and Pleasure" but only listed Kane Beatz as producer.
Price alleges he sent multiple cease-and-desist letters to Atlantic Records and Trey Songz, but they were ignored by the defendants in the case, according to AllHipHop.com. The lawsuit names Trey Songz, music company Atlantic Records, manager Gee Robertson, producer Kane Beatz and Kodak. The photo company has been dragged...

"The Who, The Mods and The Quadrophenia Connection" is the new DVD doc from Sexy Intellectual and Mvd Visual, following guitarist, composer Pete Townsend's 'The Who'.
"...As far as the 'Mod' movement which had guaranteed The Who's early success, and the Pete Townsend composed musical depiction of that movement, 'Quadrophenia', the story has been twisted, complicated and misunderstood, but remains endlessly fascinating. The band, the movement, the album, the second wave, the movie and now the 30th anniversary of the latter two, all make for a story that needs to be told in depth..."
Recently unearthed archival footage from the early movement includes rare performances/interviews with The Who and contributions from Richard Barnes, mod experts Paolo Hewitt and Terry Rawlins, Acid Jazz records owner, broadcaster, Eddie Pillar, Mod revivalists 'The Chords', 'The Purple Hearts' and biographer Alan Clayson.
