Sienna Miller's Yellow acquired by Seven Arts Entertainment
In the tradition of Cassavetes' previous festival favourites, Alpha Dog and She's So Lovely, Yellow is a dark comedy about a young woman who comes to terms with her family's shadowed past. The ensemble cast features Sienna Miller, Melanie Griffith, Gena Rowlands, Ray Liotta and a breakout performance by Heather Wahlquist. Seven Arts and GFM expect the film to premiere at a major film festival next year.
Peter Hoffman, CEO of Seven Arts, commented, "We are thrilled to be in business with a proven exceptional talent such as Nick Cassavetes. We hope this will be the first of several projects with Manu and his team."
Michael Ryan, Partner of GFM, added, "I'm delighted to be collaborating with the Cassavetes family again, having worked on so many of John's movies in the past. Nick has assembled a wonderful cast and continues to work his magic in this remarkable production."
Manu Kumaran of Medient commented, "Nick Cassavetes is not only a brilliant story teller but is also a filmmaker who is very aware of the society around him. Yellow is classic Nick -- funny, warm, poignant and a social comment all at once. Medient could not have found better partners than Seven Arts and GFM Films to distribute the film."
