Ildikó Enyedi’s “Story of My Wife” was panned at Cannes in 2021, but she’s still a notable name in the euro film circuit, having helmed critically acclaimed films “My 20th Century” and “On Body and Soul.” She’s now working on a new film, set to shoot next month, titled “Silent Friend.” It’s set to star Tony Leung and Léa Seydoux. The plot “tells three stories connected to a tree over a period of more than 100 years” and centers on “radical shifts in human perception of plants, animals and humans.”
Paul Greengrass’ "The Uprising," starring Andrew Garfield, opened to $3.2M from 2,068 theaters this weekend. Yikes. The budget hasn’t been disclosed, but is said to be in the $20-$30M range.
