  • "Fahrenheit" reaches Flash Point of 6.25
    By Garth FranklinWednesday, June 2nd, 2004 10:08PM
    Looks like Michael Moore has got his wish with his Cannes award-winning documentary "Fahrenheit 911" not only finalising a US theatrical release, but a damn quick one at that.

    The Hollywood Reporter has announced that the film has found not one but three distribution entities eager to share in the movie's theatrical release. The film is set to launch theatrically June 25th (ys in just three weeks time) through a complicated distribution apparatus that will see Bob and Harvey Weinstein's newly formed Fellowship Adventure Group join forces with Lions Gate Films and IFC Films.

    Showtime is taking pay-TV rights to "Fahrenheit" through its output deal with Lions Gate. The film's home entertainment rights have not yet been sewn up, though one source close to the film said that they could land with Universal Home Video. It's expected to be rushed out onto video shelves around October, a month before the US federal election.

    Although plans have not yet been finalized - and summer screens can be hard to come by -"Fahrenheit" is expected to roll out on about 1,000 screens, sources said. The studios all declined comment on how the film's fees will be split.

    The film will roll out in international territories including Australia, the UK & in July.

    Thanks to 'Gianluca', 'Kenny' & 'Robert'.
