Now that we have TIFF and Venice, we can sort of try to figure out what will be going to Telluride which, as you guys know, is a mystery to everyone until the day before the festival.

So far, we have some clues:
1. That “as many as 4 Netflix films” may be in play.
2. That Louis Wain is a Canadian Premiere (as opposed to a North American premiere).
3. Realistically, because Telluride requires the director and one principal actor from every film to be present for the screenings, the overlap between Venice & Telluride makes it such that films can possibly screen at the latest on Sept 4th in Venice before jumping to Telluride (though usually the latest is Sept 3rd).
4. Apparently, no Blonde, Nightmare Alley, House of Gucci. No Tragedy of Macbeth either because that’s a NYFF premiere.
5. TIFF phrasing/dates also rule out: The Eyes of Tammy Faye, The Starling, others I can’t think of.

I’m thinking:

From Cannes:
Petite Maman
A Hero
The French Dispatch
Mothering Sunday
Red Rocket
Where Is Anne Frank?

TIFF or Venice & can make the dates:
The Electrical Life of Louis Wain (TIFF)
Parallel Mothers (Venice opener Sep 1st)
Dune (Venice Sep 3rd)

Maybe they can make the dates:
The Power of the Dog (Venice, Netflix)
The Hand of God (Venice, Netflix)
The Last Duel (Venice OOC)
The Card Counter (Venice)

Others:
tick, tick…BOOM! (Netflix)
The Humans

Docs (haven’t kept track of these so well):
The Velvet Underground (Cannes)
Julia
Payal Kapadia (Cannes)
Cow (Cannes)

Please ignore the other forum topic. GD glitched on me and somehow I can’t even delete it.

Hmm, let’s see. How many Netflix projects are in play (I’m actually writing them out because it’s hard to keep track)

The Power of the Dog
Passing
The Hand of God
Blonde
Tick Tick Boom (I’m not writing it the proper way anymore, forgive me)
The Harder They Fall
Bruised
The Starling
…and Don’t Look Up

I don’t know, maybe? But maybe they’ll want to keep it as a tentpole mystery for the end of the year? I dunno. The thing is: even if Don’t Look Up ends up being as successful as Vice, it’s likely to still be at least somewhat divisive. Netflix will probably want to make a lid on that and do…Tick Tick Boom instead?

I think The Lost Daughter will find its way here as well. If Venice picked it, Telluride will too, and if it gets the praise, it’ll immediately get a distributor (if it doesn’t secretly have one already), even if the release is planned for 2022.

The Power of the Dog will be the centerpiece at NYFF as a “New York premiere” which makes me think it’ll be going to Telluride too, otherwise it would have said North American premiere.

Damn. Three festivals!

I read on other pages that Don’t Look Up is rumored to premiere at Telluride, but i don’t know if it’s true.

And with that cast and subject matter (political satire about environment and climate change), it’s certainly going to be way less divisive than Vice.

Wow, so The Power of the Dog is this year’s Nomadland! I’ve had it winning picture, director, and lead actor since April and I’m not changing that until proven otherwise.

And Dunst. Everyone seems to think she’s going supporting, which she coulddddddd, but it would be a frauding for sure. But lead actor & supporting actress = a combo that is much more likely than lead actor and lead actress. I dunno.

🙁 sorry. Doesn’t mean they’re not going to play at NYFF! We don’t know the full lineup yet! They could even go to Telluride!

King Richard might play at Telluride. Focus is releasing it in Sept right after the festival, they just released the trailer. It’s not totally Telluride’s type of film, but they’ve had some of these big tentpole sentimental films before.

Or not, because Telluride doesn’t play many films to begin with.

That’s AWESOME! I love Mike Mills!! Damn, what if this is something we’ve been totally counting out but becomes a thing! After Beginners and 20th Century Women, I feel like Mike Mills may finally…arrive.
