- In case you folks missed it, Kevin, Jimmy and Joe had a nice little interview in the most recent Wizard (#86). It’s got some cool stuff about the upcoming Daredevil work and some other tidbits. We don’t have a local copy as of yet, but if someone shoots us a transcript, we’ll have it online for you all.
- Spectrum Films has released a new Joey Lauren Adams movie called “The Pros & Cons Of Breathing”. On the cover it says “Joey Lauren Adams, Golden Globe Nominee for “Chasing Amy”.The copyright date for the flick is 1993, so this is most likely a direct to video attempting to capitalize on Joey’s name from Amy’s success. Our scooper says, “The movie isn’t very good , but JLA gives an enjoyable performance.” By the way, catch Joey and Ben in the classic “Dazed and Confused” on USA this Friday at 11 PM (though the hack job on the flick’s likely to be pretty harsh).
- For the curious: In Canada, Chasing Amy and Mallrats have both been broadcast on CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company), sans butchery! Just goes to show you what difference a continental border makes, though CBC may be similar to our HBO here in the States…
- The Brew and View at the Vic Theatre in Chicago will be showing Clerks, starting September 3rd, as a midnight showing. If you’re in the area, drop by, it’s bound to be fun seeing the flick with a midnight crowd.
- Finally today, Clerks is breaking into a nice series of screenings in the INDEPENDENT FEATURE PROJECT. Here’s the scoop:
NEW YORK — For the first time, this year’s Independent Feature Film Market will include a public program of screenings — highlighting 10 indie films like Jim Jarmusch’s “Down by Law,” Richard Linklater’s “Slacker” and Kevin Smith’s “Clerks” that debuted at the market over its 20-year history. Several of the directors of featured works will be present to introduce the films, which will screen at the Anthology Film Archives on Sept. 16-25. In addition, the Independent Feature Project announced a series of 63 workshops and panels, including a reading by veteran indie producer Christine Vachon from her new book, “Shooting to Kill.” Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, the IFFM aims to heighten industry awareness of films made outside the studio system.
