Thirsty fests
Anne T has been looking into which big films will be ready for big fest preems. The answer so far: not many.
Neither Sam Mendes' Revolutionary Road nor John Patrick Shanley's Doubt will be ready for the NYFF, as previously reported here. Gus Van Sant's Milk, starring Sean Penn as Harvey Milk, will also not be finished until late October or early November, while John Hillcoat's film version of Cormac McCarthy's The Road, starring Charlize Theron and Viggo Mortenson, will not be complete until December.
