Steven Soderbergh Has One More Che Guevara Movie in Mind
Although most moviegoers haven't even had the chance to see either of Steven Soderbergh's two Che Guevara films yet, we've already started to talk about ideas beyond both of them. The Argentine focuses on Guevara's revolution in Cuba in 1956, and Guerrilla focuses on his attempted revolution in Bolivia in 1967 and eventual death. However, none of Guevara's escapades in the Congo, Venezuela or Mexico were documented in either of the films. So when an attendee at the NYFF Q&A asked Soderbergh about Che's

Steven Soderbergh's Che Sells to IFC; The Hurt Locker to Summit
Two more major sales today from Toronto: Steven Soderbergh's Che sold to IFC and Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker sold to Summit Entertainment. Both of these sales have been causing eyebrows to be raised and are interesting choices, especially Che. As everyone should know by now, Che is a two part epic about Cuban revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara, that has been in constant debates over whether releasing both parts separately or together would be better. The Hurt Locker is an Iraq war film that has been

Word from the TIFF via the NY Post is that Steven Soderbergh’s $60 million 4-hour-plus Che Guevara biopic, Che, has finally been picked up by Mark Cuban’s Magnolia Pictures for a U.S. theatrical release.
