Bennett Miller's 'Foxcatcher' moves out of the Oscar race to 2014
Posted by Kristopher Tapley · 8:47 pm · September 26th, 2013
If you want a press release to land somewhat quietly, drop it at 10:00pm ET. And not that the news of “Foxcatcher” didn’t cause plenty of commotion a few hours ago, but it was obviously a willful decision from Sony Classics to let the news out when they did. I’ve been in screenings all day and just now got back to my desk to assess all of this, but the news is this: Bennett Miller’s latest is officially a 2014 release.

Should 'The Avengers' assemble for SAG ensemble?
Posted by Kristopher Tapley · 8:05 am · April 25th, 2012
