Miramax
to Distribute in the United States
NEW
YORK, May 25 (PRNewswire) -- Miramax Films has acquired the US distribution
rights to one of the most well received competition films at this year's
Cannes Film Festival, "The Barbarian Invasions" ("Les Invasions
Barbares"), directed and written by Denys Arcand and starring Remy
Girard, Stephane Rousseau, Marie-Josee Croze and Louise Portal, it was
announced today by Miramax executive vice president of acquisitions and
co-productions Agnes Mentre. "The Barbarian Invasions" was honored
today at the Cannes Film Festival with awards for Best Actress (Marie-Josee
Croze) and Best Screenplay (Denys Arcand). The French language film is
produced by Denise Robert and Daniel Louis, from Cinemaginaire, and co-produced
by Fabienne Vonier, from Pyramide. Miramax acquired the rights from Flach
Pyramide International (FPI).
A
sequel to the popular 1986 film "Decline of the American Empire,"
"The Barbarian Invasions" centers on a man who spends the last
days of his life making peace with his life and exploring the ties that
bind family and friends.
"We
are pleased to have been able to acquire such a wonderful film, which
the entire acquisitions team loved, from the renowned company FPI,"
said Agnes Mentre. "It is so rare to find a movie that balances emotion
and comedy and also contains profound statements about the important subjects
of our lives. Because of these elements, we believe this film will be
accessible to a wide audience."
"Denys
Arcand is a great filmmaker whose work stood out high above the rest of
the films at this year's Cannes Film Festival," said Miramax co-chairman
Harvey Weinstein. "The film is full of humanity and shows a fascinating
perspective on friendship and family. We are pleased to be in business
with Denys, Denise, and Daniel."
"The
film was one of the hottest titles at the festival and I'm very proud
that Miramax has decided to acquire it," said Eric Lagesse, FPI head
of sales. "I'm confident that in the hands of Miramax, the film will
be a great success in the US. Agnes, Maeva and I have been trying to work
together for quite a long time and I'm glad that it finally worked out
on this particular movie."
Maeva
Gatineau, UK based vice president of acquisitions, and Agnes Mentre brought
the film into Miramax.
Charles
Layton, executive vice president, office of the co-chairman, and Mentre
negotiated on behalf of Miramax. Eric Lagesse negotiated on behalf of
