Tribeca Film and Well Go Snap Up 'Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes,' Starring Jessica Biel and Kaya Scodelario

13 May 2013 9:31 AM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »

Tribeca Film and Well Go USA have announced the co-acquisition of North American rights to Francesca Gregorini's psychological thriller "Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes," which stars Jessica Biel and Kaya Scodelario ("Wuthering Heights"). The film premiered at Sundance in January. In the film, a troubled teen girl (Scodelario) becomes fixated on her neighbor (Biel), who bears a striking resemblance to her dead mother. Alfred Molina ("An Education") and Frances O'Connor ("The Importance of being Earnest") also star. The Sundance program notes for the film describe it as "vacillating between surrealism and realism," as Scodelario's character enters a dreamlike, uncanny world. Gregorini's previous feature was "Tanner Hall," starring a then-unknown Rooney Mara. The director describes originally writing the "Emanuel" script for Mara, because both she and the actress were "out of a job" following the "Tanner Hall" wrap. Tribeca and Well Go plan a late 2013 theatrical release, along »

TNT’s ‘Monday Mornings’ Cancelled

10 May 2013 2:04 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »

TNT has officially cancelled David E. Kelley/Sanjay Gupta’s Monday Mornings after one season. There was not much hope for the medical drama, which opened with an underwhelming 1.34 million viewers and ended its freshman run at the same level, with the finale drawing 1.37 million. But, like Kelley’s previous series, NBC’s Harry’s Law, Monday Morning quickly developed a small but devoted and passionate fan base. Monday Mornings, about the lives of a group of surgeons, starred Ving Rhames, Alfred Molina and Jennifer Finnigan. “(David E. Kelley, Bill D’Elia and Dr. Sanjay Gupta, on whose novel the series was based) crafted a unique and powerfully moving drama full of memorable situations and characters brought to life by a terrific ensemble cast,” TNT said in a statement. “Unfortunately the show never built its audience enough to warrant its continuation.” Related: TNT’s ‘Southland’ Cancelled After Five Seasons »

Sundance London – Emanuel And The Truth About Fishes Review: An Unintentionally Hilarious Mess

30 April 2013 4:14 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Rating: 1.5 out of 5 stars

From the esoteric title onwards, almost everything about Francesca Gregorini’s sophomore feature is awash in a desperate degree of self-consciousness, over-eager for viewers to connect with its mannered style of storytelling, which while visually enticing, falls flat in just about every other area.

Emanuel (Kaya Scodelario) is your typical downtrodden, misery-laden teen who can’t find it in herself to get on with her stepmother (Frances O’Connor) and her browbeaten dad (Alfred Molina). Since young, Emanuel has been embittered about the childbirth death of her mother, and is clearly yearning for some sort of maternal figure who she can relate to.

This figure arrives in the way of her new neighbour, Linda (Jessica Biel), who is a single mother with a baby daughter named Chloe. The two become fast friends when Emanuel, entirely out of character, offers to help babysit, and girded by some »

"A Whisper to a Roar" Chronicles the Ordinary Beginnings of Extraordinary Social Movements

29 April 2013 10:23 AM, PDT | JustPressPlay.net | See recent JustPressPlay news »

A Whisper to a Roar focuses on struggles for democracy in five very different nations around the world, where the lack of fair elections and the violent oppression of political rivals by those who should never have been put in charge in the first place is more than enough cause to act. The various countries and cultures that the film showcases are all very different, but the one thing they have in common is a desire for change, even as the government that they rely on to protect their rights seems intent on squashing them underfoot. These people are as heroic as they come without having superpowers.

With smooth narration by actor Alfred Molina and quality direction from filmmaker Ben Moses (best known for producing Good Morning Vietnam), A Whisper to a Roar utilizes news clips, live footage, interviews and even animated sequences to show how powerful people can be »

Sundance London 2013 – Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes Review

29 April 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes is one of the most unique films you’ll see this year.

It’s a dramatic psychological thriller with a powerful secret, captivating from the moment it begins; films of such a high calibre and with such an engaging premise have really been few and far between in recent memory.

Kaya Scodelario is breathtaking in the titular lead, starring as the troubled young teen, Emanuel. She becomes obsessed with her mysterious new neighbour, Linda (Jessica Biel), who bears an uncanny resemblance to Emanuel’s mother, who died whilst giving birth to her.

When Emanuel is invited over to babysit for Linda’s newborn daughter, a striking chemistry develops, forming a strong bond between the young girl on the cusp of adulthood and the new mother. And when reality threatens to burst their bubble, Emanuel goes to great lengths to keep the outside world at bay. »

Sundance London: Interview With Director Francesca Gregorini

One of the marquee features at this year’s Sundance Film Festival is Emanuel And The Truth About Fishes. Thn were lucky enough to talk to writer/director Francesca Gregorini about her intriguing new film. Check out our review here.

Thn: First of all, congratulations on the movie.

Fg: Thank you, and thanks for getting up so early to see it.

Thn: Let’s start at the beginning. The first thing we see is the opening titles over water and then Emanuel washing her face. The symbolism of water and flooding grows throughout the film which leads to some incredible visuals, particularly the shot where she swims out of the window. I was wondering if you had the visuals in mind first and then gave it meaning, or you had the significance of the water in mind and the visuals came after?

Fg: Actually I had none of it in mind (laughs) which is, »
