It’s been a long, bumpy road for Andrew Jarecki’s non-documentary feature debut “All Good Things” to reach theaters.
Starring Ryan Gosling, Kirsten Dunst, Frank Langella and Kristen Wiig, the film, shot way back in early 2008, was left languishing on the shelves of The Weinstein Company for the best part of the last year. However, in March, the Jarecki made the move to buy back the film from TWC, and found a new distributor in Magnolia late this summer.
Well, the film has finally been given some solid release dates. It will hit VOD on November 5th before opening in New York on December 3rd; a national rollout will follow. The film is “inspired by the true story of Robert Durst (Gosling) the scion of a wealthy New York family who was acquitted of killing his neighbor and whose first wife vanished into thin air.” The true story of Robert Durst is ripe with bizarro details — he dressed as a woman; while a fugitive from justice he was arrested trying to steal a sandwich even though he had $500 in his pocket — that are too much to detail here, but this extensive summary of his life is definitely worth a read.
You can take a look at the new unveiled poster and marvel at the poor photoshop job on Ryan Gosling’s head being placed on another body. And look! It’s a bloody, New York City skyline! Ooooh. Straight-to-DVD one sheet aside, we are still curious about this one; hopefully a new trailer will drop soon. [Vulture]
