Just as last night’s Malick report went live, a screenwriter friend emailed me this bit on the whereabouts of “The Last Planet”:
“I can report on the way down-low that Mr. Malick is deep in editing of that film--which probably will have another, as-yet-unreported title--and there is no end in sight. To the point that some around him feel it may wind up an unfinished symphony. Definitely not Cannes this year, definitely not anywhere this year.”
Criterion's December lineup has some great additions to the library, but the title that jumped out at me is Werner Herzog's "Grizzly Man," which officially joins the Collection on December 8.
