This first dispatch cheats a bit, as will the next few: there was an embarrassment of riches this year in NYC as far as pre-tiff/long-lead screenings go, so I started writing up the festival before actually getting there to give myself a head start — today’s dispatch, hitting before the festival technically kicks off, digs into some of the Cannes/Berlin titles that are crammed into marathon competitive P&I slots on day one proper. This is my first year attending Tiff, and as excited as I am to finally be attending, it’s inevitable that doing daily coverage will take its toll. Local color perhaps […]...

Read More: How Tribeca-Winning Director Zachary Treitz Made 'Men Go to Battle,' a Period Film That Feels Strikingly Modern As part of the "Local Color" program that celebrates independent New York filmmakers, the Nitehawk Cinema and Tribeca Film Festival presented a screening of the Civil War period piece "Men Go to Battle" on Tuesday night, followed by a Q&A with director Zachary Treitz, cinematographer Ben Jutkiewicz and co-producer Brendan McHugh. Treitz was honored with the Best New Director for a Narrative Feature award earlier this year at the Tribeca Film Festival. Despite its Civil War backdrop, "Men Go to Battle" is a familial portrait that feels intimate and remarkably contemporary. After the screening, Treitz spoke about how his own family's Kentucky upbringing inspired the story and explained how his objective was to "make us feel like we’re jumping into the world rather than commenting on it from a 150 years later.

George Gallo - Interview
One of the most thrilling things you get to do when you’re in a position to see a film very, very early is knowing that whatever you are feeling about the experience of seeing that movie, is pure. Pure because you are not tainted by the pool of public opinion or subconsciously projecting someone’s off-handed comment onto your own. It’s devoid of judgment and expectation and watching a movie like Middle Men, with a crowd that only knew that it starred Luke Wilson, who hasn’t given such a dynamic performance since The Royal Tennenbaums, Giovanni Ribisi, a complete terror who delightfully and shamelessly steals every scene he’s in, and James Caan, who lets...

Well, you know your options are pretty limited when Crank 2: High Voltage and Dance Flick are the two biggest DVD releases for the week. Not only that, but if you're really dying to see Dance Flick, you'll need a Blu-ray player because the standard DVD isn't out until a few months later. Also hitting stores this week is Alex Rivera's indie sci-fi film Sleep Dealer, the fifth season of NBC's The Office, and the inaugural seasons of Fringe, Parks and Recreation and Important Things with Demetri Martin. If Dance Flick wasn't enough to convince you, however, there's another reason why this will be the week that Blu-ray truly catches on: Sylvester Stallone's Over The Top. To quote Lincoln Hawk: "When you want something, you gotta take it." Dance Flick [1] (Blu-ray) Crank 2: High Voltage [2] (DVD, Blu-ray [3]) Sleep Dealer [4] (DVD, Blu-ray [5]) Valentino: The Last Emperor [6] (DVD, Blu-ray [7]) I'll...

I'd like to spend this blog talking about mentors. I grew up watching movies like The Karate Kid and always dreamed of having a Mr. Miyagi to help me guide me through the trials of life. I'm sure a lot of people in my generation, a generation of working parents and television babysitters, yearned for this as well. It was through the coming of age stories like Stand By Me that we learned important lessons about life and friendship. It was through The Karate Kid that we learned the value of discipline. I never had a Mr. Miyagi in my turbulent teen years. And I never went on a journey with my friends that left us with a better understanding of life. Instead, I grew up in the suburbs. The impenetrable boredom of little boxes lined up on a series of dead end streets and cul-de-sacs.

- Low budget filmmaker George Gallo has gathered some former players in Giovanni Ribisi (from the just completed Middle Men) and Selma Blair (My Mom's New Boyfriend) and added Amy Smart and Jason Lee to the fold in an indie thriller that was co-written with Kevin Pollak (the actor also has a role in the film - he wrote himself a concierge part). To be filmed in Los Angeles, Columbus Circle is actually a Manhattan apt. set project which focuses on a reclusive heiress (Blair) in an upscale Manhattan apartment building who is brought face-to-face with her fears when a detective (Ribisi) shows up to investigate a homicide next door and a new couple (Smart and Lee) moves in to that apartment. Oxymoron Entertainment's Christopher Mallick and Blue Star Entertainment's William Sherak and Jason Shuman produce. Gallo has failed to make a spark for himself in the previous projects

Local Color (Tff 2006) is a quiet, lovely movie about ideas, art, and coming of age, with gorgeous scenery and some understatedly powerhouse acting from the likes of the always-compelling Armin Mueller-Stahl (most recently seen in Angels and Demons and The International). After a successful life on the festival circuit, Local Color is finally wending its way to theaters, starting with the Quad Cinema in New York this Friday (July 3). Set in the summer of 1974, the film centers on the unlikely friendship that develops between Nicoli (Mueller-Stahl), a retired Russian artist, and John (relative newcomer Trevor Morgan), a young man with raw talent as a painter and an enthusiasm for art that rejuvenates the old man's spirits. Along the way, the two (and others, including a pretentiously fey Ron Perlman) consider, debate, and argue art theory, modernism, and ways of viewing the world. Set against the backdrop of Pennsylvania ...

Daytime soap star Rhys Wakefield takes the role of the Gilbert Grape-esque Thomas, a burdened army brat charged with his brother's care while his parents drag the two up and down the country until he meets Jackie, a free spirit who teaches him how to shed his bitterness. The always impressive Toni Collette anchors this teenage ensemble as the boy's mother, Maggie. Luke Ford and Gemma Ward co-star.

- Local Color Premiere Local Coloris about a successful artist looks back with loving memories on the summer of his defining year, 1974. A talented, but troubled eighteen year old art student befriends an elderly alcoholic genius painter who has turned his back on not only art, but life. The two form, what appears to be at first a tenuous relationship. The kid wants to learn all the secrets the master has locked away inside his head and heart. Time has not been kind to the old master. His life appears pointless to him until the kid rekindles his interest in his work and ultimately gives him the will to live. Together, they give one another a priceless gift. The kid learns to see the world through the master's eyes. And the master learns to see life through the eyes of innocence again. This story is based on a real life experience.
