Read a really good article in Entertainment Weekly about the resurrection of River Phoenix last movie before he OD outside The Viper Room. I've been interested in this movie for 20 years. So, I would like to see how the director managed to complete it. It remains to be seen if we will ever see this. The article talks about how the director lost the rights to the film after shutting down production and how it's been sitting in a vault all this time. But when he heard that the new owners of the film were going to destroy it because they didn't want to have to pay for the upkeep of storage cost, the director himself actually stole all the film back. Awesome.

I forgot to mention that the film is scheduled to premiere, with an invited audience only, on September 27, 2012, at the Netherlands Film Festival in Utrecht, Netherlands.

It's just weird seeing him in new stuff 20 years later. So young. So sad it ended the way it did.

Ya, and the trailer looked pristine. Unless you knew the history, that looked current.

That was my first reaction. Reading the stuff about the film, I thought the Prints themselves were going to be beyond repair or something.
