Just the other day, “The Soloist” suffered the same fate as many ’08 awards hopefuls when it was promptly bumped to an unspectacular release in March of next year, and now a press release has surfaced stating that no longer will Joe Wright’s film have its opening night world premiere at the AFI Fest in Los Angeles. A new opening night film is set to be announced sometime today, wonder what it could be?
Some are saying or hoping that Paramount will try and make it up to AFI by screening “Benjamin Button,” and I would be extremely jealous of all AFI festival goers if that happens. [DHD] – From our friends at Fataculture.
