Exclusive: Producer Sam Okun and his Sam Okun Productions banner have optioned worldwide film and TV remake and sequel rights to a pair of classic films directed and produced by three-time Oscar nominee Otto Preminger: 1959’s Anatomy of a Murder and 1962’s Advise & Consent.
The former courtroom drama based on Michigan Supreme Court Justice John D. Voelker’s novel watched as an upstate Michigan lawyer defended a soldier who claimed he killed an innkeeper due to temporary insanity after the victim raped his wife. The drama starring James Stewart, Lee Remick and Ben Gazzara landed seven Academy Award nominations upon its release, including Best Picture, Screenplay and Actor.
Advise & Consent was a political thriller based on Allen Drury’s 1959 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, in which the polarizing search for a new Secretary of State had far-reaching consequences. Henry Fonda, Charles Laughton, Don Murray, Walter Pidgeon, Peter Lawford,...

As the Berlinale trundles on, the usual joie de vivre of a pre-pandemic film festival is in short supply, and dealmaking out of the virtual European Film Market has felt lopsided.
Sony’s $60 million deal for Tom Hanks’ “A Man Called Otto,” an adaptation of Fredrik Backman’s bestselling Swedish-language novel “A Man Called Ove” — which was made into an Oscar-nominated Swedish feature — grabbed headlines early on (Variety understands it boiled down to a bidding war between the studio and Apple), but hasn’t necessarily spawned the usual flurry of deals from Berlin halfway through the festival.
One buyer from a major U.K. distributor says the EFM vibe has felt “muted” for a company of its size, with an absence of broad-appeal product available once “Otto” was snapped up by Sony. “The lack of mainstream commercial packages is frustrating, and only puts more pressure on Cannes needing to deliver something big for all,...

Barbara Steele has one of her better performance showcases in Camillo Mastrocinque’s classy ghost story with a somewhat dispiriting twist. Steele’s fan-collectors won’t need extra encouragement, as she’s in most every scene and gets to play a variety of moods from delicate to seductive to outright poisonous. Quality performances flatter a flawed screenplay, and the fine direction and attentive cinematography clearly inspired Steele to give it everything she had. Severin’s quality HD transfer is everything we’d want, with dual language tracks and good extras including a Kat Ellinger commentary and a second track featuring stellar input from Ms. Steele herself.

Linda Carlson, who starred in the short-lived 1970s TV series Westside Medical and Kaz before becoming a familiar recurring actor on Newhart, Steven Bochco’s Murder One and the television adaptation of Clueless, died Oct. 26 in Gaylordsville, Ct. She was 76.
Her family said the cause of death was Als.
Born in Knoxville, Tn, Carlson moved to New York to attend graduate school at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and soon after began appearing Off Broadway and, in 1973, on Broadway in the Otto Preminger-directed revival of Erich Maria Remarque’s Full Circle.
Carlson made her TV debut in 1977’s Westside Medical, playing Dr. Janet Cottrell for the 13-episode run. The following year she co-starred in the legal drama Kaz, with Ron Leibman playing attorney Martin “Kaz” Kazinsky.
Numerous guest appearances followed, including roles on Wkrp in Cincinnati, Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Brothers (starring her then-husband Philip Charles MacKenzie), My Two Dads and,...

Martha Stewart, an actress whose run of 1940s and ’50s era Hollywood hits included costarring roles in Daisy Kenyon opposite Joan Crawford and In a Lonely Place with Humphrey Bogart, died Feb. 17. She was 98.

“The original Martha Stewart left us yesterday,” Shelley tweeted:
She had a new part to play in a movie with all her heavenly friends. She went off peacefully surrounded by her family and cat.

The exciting and wholly unexpected news that Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange will be returning to the McU for Spider-Man 3 also came with the additional caveat that he’ll reportedly step into the father figure role recently vacated by Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark. However, even though Peter is still a teenager, he’s already a hugely experienced member of the Avengers that’s dealt with multiple threats, been to outer space and helped save the universe from Thanos. So, the question remains, do we really need to see the franchise go down the mentor route again?

There’s a sense that history is repeating itself right now, with our entertainment overlords once again deciding that a live-action adaptation of Anthony Horowitz’s Alex Rider novels is exactly what we need. But long before the upcoming Amazon Prime series was a twinkle in anybody’s eye, a feature-length film starring some high-profile British actors arrived in cinemas in 2006.
That film was Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker. A fairly faithful adaptation of the first book in Horowitz’s series, with a few added action scenes and beefed out roles for the supporting players, the Stormbreaker movie was an inoffensive way to spend a brisk 93 minutes.
The companies that invested in the film – which included The Weinstein Company in the Us, and Mpc, Samuelson Productions and Isle Of Man Film in the UK – presumably went into the production of the movie hoping to spark an on-going film franchise. After all,...

Canada's Bruce Labruce has been one of the more notable cinematic provocateurs of the last couple of decades. Starting off in Toronto's queercore scene, he's won acclaim on the festival circuit thanks to the taboo-busting, sexually explicit likes of "The Raspberry Reich," "Otto, Or Up With Dead People," and "L.A. Zombie" (the latter of which was banned from the Melbourne Film Festival). So when his latest film, "Gerontophilia," opens with a blank screen over which we seem to hear a woman nearing orgasm as she recites the names of "female revolutionaries" including Lizzie Borden and Winona Ryder, you'd be forgiven for expecting more of the same envelope pushing.

Bruce Labruce, the Canadian filmmaker probably most famous around these parts for his sexually explicit and homoerotic take on the zombie genre, Otto; or, Up with Dead People, is a director whose work is remarkably difficult to review. You could admire him for his audacity in crafting low-budget, erotic curios which divide audiences into the outraged, the bemused, the aroused and the impressed, or alternatively you can dismiss him as a pornographer, as many are wont to do. I'm not really here to enter that debate, although I do believe in freedom of expression when it comes to art (good or bad) and therefore am willing to take a chance on any artist. So, I'm here to review his new film, and relay whether or not it is successful on its own terms. It is essentially a darkly com [Continued ...]...

Berlin-based sales outfit Raspberry&Cream (R&C) is partnering with Jürgen Brüning Filmproduktion to co-produce Like Cattle Towards Glow, which aims to achieve a new way of portraying sex on screen.
The film, which will begin shooting in Paris this summer with French film-maker Christophe Honoré as associate producer, is based on the first screenplay written by the Us novelist Dennis Cooper together with the film’s director, French-American visual artist Zac Farley.
“The idea for the script [for] Like Cattle Towards Glow arose from the fact that violence is prominently featured in films whereas sex, a far less upsetting act, seems to be rather poorly represented,” Brüning said.
According to the producers, the film will comprise “a set of five original narratives that deviate from the norm by using explicit sex as a privileged means to access its participants’ emotions, vulnerabilities, feelings of alienation, and ennui regarding the objectification of their own and others’ bodies.”

Bruce Labruce’s film [pictured] will have its world premiere at Berlinale; Beta Cinema picks up Alain Gsponer’s Solothurn opener Akte Grüninger.
Berlin-based Raspberry&Cream has picked up its second Bruce Labruce title, Pierrot Lunaire, which will have its world premiere in the Berlinale’s Forum Expanded section next month.
Sales company m-appeal’s label for often sexually charged films had been launched in 2010 with Labruce’s La Zombie, shown at the film festival in Locarno. M-appeal had previously handled sales on the director’s 2008 film Otto.
The new 56-minute black-and-white feature, which is produced by Labruce’s regular collaborator Jürgen Brüning, is inspired by composer Arnold Schönberg’s Pierrot Lunaire, which is based on the poems of Albert Giraud and is widely regarded as one of the most influential works composed in the 20th century.

Every year, we here at Sound On Sight celebrate the month of October with 31 Days of Horror; and every year, I update the list of my favourite horror films ever made. Last year, I released a list that included 150 picks. This year, I’ll be upgrading the list, making minor alterations, changing the rankings, adding new entries, and possibly removing a few titles. I’ve also decided to publish each post backwards this time for one reason: the new additions appear lower on my list, whereas my top 50 haven’t changed much, except for maybe in ranking. I am including documentaries, short films and mini series, only as special mentions – along with a few features that can qualify as horror, but barely do.
