[NEWS] BUNRAKU-related
Hi all,
Remember this site that surfaced a while ago, and we were wondering about it?
http://www.lovefilm.com/search/results/?query=bunraku
Well, at the time, I emailed Colin Geddes, who is a film festival programmer in charge of BUNRAKU (He organized its showing in Toronto International Film Festival, too), to ask him about this, since I'd just met him in Asheville (when I went to see BUNRAKU in the Action Film Festival he had organized there. He had some interesting things to tell us about GACKT from the TIFF.) where he'd told me about a limited theatrical release planned in the future.
Anyway, I just finally got a reply from him earlier (He's been a busy bee in Cannes and elsewhere, so he is forgiven. =w=).
This is what he said:
[snip]
"This doesn't seem to be a legit site, but rather a "placeholder" for when it does get a release. It is common for sites to build stock/content by this which i s frustrating when you are actually looking for information on a film!
I know that the distributor XLrator Media will be doing some kind of limited release, but I haven't heard when that will be."
[snip]
So, there you go. Just wanted to let you guys know in case you were still wondering.
