… on Thursday, March 4, at 10 ET according to USA’s schedule. That’s two weeks from tomorrow.
NBC Universal has released a few promotional stills from the episode, among them this one:
And here is the synopsis for “Devil You Know,” from TV.com:
Michael is approached by his alter ego – the man who actually committed the crimes that were used to burn him.
Looks like Winter’s Bone will be released in the U.S. sooner rather than later.
Winter’s Bone, recipient of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival’s Dramatic Competition Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic and the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award, will get a June 2010 release from Roadside Attractions. [Pretty-Scary.net]
This is also confirmed on the film’s official page: www.wintersbonemovie.com.
For a preview of the Winter’s Bone soundtrack, you can visit KSPR.com. They have a video of the band Dirt Road Delight performing a song from the movie. The song is also available on the band’s site: www.dirtroaddelight.com.
The screening schedule for the SXSW festival (Austin, March) is posted here.
Finally, the film also got several new distributors across Europe. From Variety:
Debra Granik’s “Winter’s Bone” has been acquired by Paradiso for Benelux, Pretty Pictures for France, Look Now for Switzerland, Lusomundo for Portugal and Vivarto for Poland, with deals currently being finalized for Scandinavian distribution. [Variety]
Good news all around.
Some television news.
Garret will appear in the season 2 finale of Gary Unmarried, the CBS sitcom with Jay Mohr and Paula Marshall. He will play Goose McNair, Gary’s divorce lawyer who (I think) has been referenced throughout the series as the guy who got his degree online and went touring with David Hasselhoff during the proceedings (anyone watching?) The show airs Wednesdays at 8:30/7:30c on CBS.
In the meantime, here is another blog to watch while Baryo is in production. One fine nose portrait right here.
Also, people on Twitter will remember this picture from a few weeks back. Well, the MMA Heat episode is up (no region restrictions) and it includes an interview with the man. Link: http://www.ibnsports.com/mmaheat/
And watch out for some older clips later this week.
Looks like Oliver Sherman will be getting some promotion at the Berlin Film Festival, too. I can’t find anything about it being screened there (it’s still in post-production), but the film will be part of the Canada at Berlinale 2010 program and probably looking for a European distributor.
The film now also has a page on The Film Works’ site.
Berlinale kicks off on February 11. Winter’s Bone has its first screening on Feb. 16.
Just a quick note to say that Baryo started filming the other day. You can follow updates on the Baryo production blog or, if you’re on Twitter, you can follow me there to be alerted whenever they post an update. (I fed their blog to Twitterfeed the other week, so it automatically tweets every new post.)
Other than that, two new interviews with Chris Cooper showed up online in the last few days. The first one was with the local Inquirer:
How did you prepare for your role here?
John provided me with a very thick academic account of the Philippine-American War. He also gives actors a two-page biography [of their] characters. It’s a great starting point.
What did you learn about your character?
My character is disgusted by [another character’s] interest in architecture in the Philippines. In real life, I’m a great fan of architecture. [Inquirer]
And he also briefly talked about his character in Baryo at Sundance, where he was promoting The Company Men with Tommy Lee Jones. It’s 14:50 minutes in and if you don’t want to be spoiled about The Company Men, skip everything between 14:00 and 14:50.
