The Secret of Kells - Special Screening
For Your Consideration: 2009 Academy Award Nominee for Best Animated Feature -- "THE SECRET OF KELLS".
If you live near Burbank, CA "The Secret of Kells" will be playing it's qualifying theatrical run for the Oscar nomination at the AMC Burbank 8 from Dec. 4 - Dec. 10, 2009.
Oh wow, I have been wanting to see this too bad I'm not there. I have been following the blog but no word yet on a US release. At least not that I ma aware of.
If it gets nominated (or wins !) the Academy Award for Best Animated Picture look for a wider release.
Otherwise will probably be a more limited "art house" type of release, rolling out regionally at different times , sort of like the releases of The Triplets of Belleville and Persepolis a few years back.
Tell your local art house theater you'd like to see it and give them the name of the distributor:

ReplyDeleteI'll have to check and see if there's such a theater on the east coast... this looks cool!

Great, thanks. I'll have to contact the Ritz in Philadelphia and see if they'll play it.
