NEW IFFM DEALS
'Hellgate' hot!
Despite the rainy weather, the Independent Feature film market remained lively on Tuesday, dominated by gangsters, kudos and talk of foreign markets. The hot screening of the day was actor-turned-helmer Michael Sergio's Gotham--based mobster pic "Under Hellgate Bridge," which garnered a full house that included cast members Vincent Pastore and Dominic Chianese, who also appear on HBO's "The Sopranos." By the days end, there were domestic and foreign theatrical distribution offers on the table, insiders said. Pic concerns a gangster who tries to win back the love of his life from a competing mobster. The producers expect to sign a deal within the coming weeks. |
