In a sign of support and solidarity across both UK and US distributors, the Film Distributors’ Association (FDA) today announced “Relaunching Cinema: Content For Recovery”, designed to provide UK exhibitors an easily accessible and navigable list of films (PDF link) to play on their screens in the c…

7 Reasons Why Moving “Tenet” Was The Right Call For The Industry

Most movie industry observers figured that Warner Brothers would have to make a decision on whether to fire the starter’s gun on the “summer” movie season by launching Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” on July 17th by the middle of June. The word came down late last week that while “Tenet” would indeed be…

What Cinemas Are Showing While They Wait for “Tenet”

In one of the most famous scenes in the 1992 film, “The Last of the Mohicans”, Daniel Day Lewis’ character tells Madeleine Stowe, “You stay alive, no matter what occurs, I will find you.” That’s a rather apt analogy for movie theater operators during this coronavirus pandemic who are trying desperat…

The Hollywood Studio Release Schedule Shuffle: Where It’s Been and Where It’s Going

There’s a favorite New England saying, “If you don’t like the weather wait 10 minutes and it will all change.” Welcome to 2020 in the movie business.

Why November, Mr Bond?
