"Knight of Cups" opened earlier this year, "Weightless" still hasn't locked a release date, and the documentary "Voyage Of Time" is a few months off. Nevertheless, that's not stopping filmmaker Terrence Malick from setting up his next project.
Blickpunkt: Film (via The Playlist) says that Malick has received funding from a German funding body towards the production of his next feature "Radegund".
"Inglourious Basterds" actor August Diehl plays Franz Jagerstatter, an Austrian man who opposed the Nazis and refused to fight as a conscientious objector - causing him to be executed by the Nazis in 1943. Axel Corti previously adapted his story on film in 1971, and in 2007 Jagerstatter was beatified and declared a martyr by Pope Benedict XVI.
Shooting will take place at Studio Babelsberg this summer.

Mahler on the Couch
Theatrical Hit From Percy & Felix Adlon (Bagdad Cafe) This exuberant imagining of the real-life marriage of Gustav Mahler (Johannes Silberschneider) and his tempestuous wife Alma Schindler Mahler (the luminous Barbara Romaner) is a sensory feast of art, sex and celebrity in fin-de-siècle Vienna. American Jerusalem:Jews and the Making of San Francisco Drawn to California by the Gold Rush, pioneering Jews were welcomed in San Francisco, where Jews played a central role in the transformation of this once-sleepy maritime village into the largest metropolis in the American West.
Being Jewish in France
Film Festival & Theatrical Hit. Yves Jeuland's sweeping two-film documentary explores the rich and complex history of Jews in France--the first country to grant Jews citizenship--has become the definitive documentary on the topic.
2 or 3 Things I Know About Him
Theatrical Hit . Family drama and historical truth collide in this documentary about the legacy cast by Hanns Ludin, a Nazi executed for war crimes in 1947. Ludin's son, Malte Ludin, breaks 60 years of silence, investigating his father's dark deeds.
Einsatzgruppen: The Death Brigades Nazi mobile killing squads, led by highly-educated officers and aided by local collaborators, systematically murdered over a million Jews. Who were the men who carried out mass murder at close range? Includes astounding, never-seen-before film and photographs.
Tel Aviv-Jaffa
Produced in celebration of the 100th anniversary of Tel Aviv, the two-part film explores the rich and complex history of Tel Aviv and Jaffa. A fast-paced, lively film, this popular documentary intercuts a treasure trove of archival film with images of contemporaryTel Aviv-Jaffa.
The Cantor's Son
Restored by Ncjf . This toe-tapping Yiddish musical drama stars Moishe Oysher in the title role J. Hoberman calls the "anti-Jazz Singer." May be the most exhilarating example yet exhumed of the once-thriving, completely global Yiddish cinema." -Boston Phoenix
The Jester
Restored by Ncjf. A charming romance drama produced in Poland, The Jester's lively circus and vaudeville music and set pieces provide a glimpse of Warsaw's then-thriving Yiddish revues and cabarets, which were destroyed soon after.
The Trial of Adolf Eichmann
The 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann held in Israel and broadcast around the globe, was a benchmark event in the historiography of the Holocaust, especially in Israel where the trial proved a watershed for survivors and the new Jewish state.
Punk Jews
Profiling Hassidic punk rockers, Yiddish street performers, African-American Jewish activists & more, Punk Jews explores a movement of provocateurs and committed Jews who are asking what it means to be Jewish in the 21st century.
Kol Nidre
Ncjf New Digital Restoration. A bissel of this, a bissel of that, Kol Nidre has a little bit of everything, combining family melodrama and romance with popular songs, cantorial music and comic bits in an inventive pastiche of themes and styles.
How to Re-Establish a Vodka Empire
British filmmaker Daniel Edelstyn discovers the vodka distillery opened by his family in 1904 in the Ukraine is still in operation and decides--despite his utter lack of business experience--to become a liquor entrepreneur.
Jewish Soldiers in Blue & Gray
Brother against brother, Jew against Jew, 10,000 Jewish soldiers fought in the American Civil War, on both sides of the battlefield, in numbers proportionally higher than other American groups.
Dear Mr. Waldman
Film Festival Favorite Drama. A coming-of-age story written and directed by the son of survivors, Dear Mr. Waldman beautifully captures the milieu of mid-century Israel and the peculiarities of growing up amid the emotional wreckage of the Holocaust.

Repertory theaters on the coasts are truly offering a window onto the world this spring, with Jia Zhangke and Bong Joon-ho retrospectives, as well as New French Cinema in New York, "Freebie and the Bean," "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" and Jason Reitman's favorite films invade Los Angeles, and the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin is offering a fond farewell to the video cassette. But consider this a hello to seeing classics, oddities and rarities on the big screen over the next few months.

Is there a more energetic way to start the spring than with a screening of Russ Meyer's "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" (Feb. 20, with editors Rumsey Taylor, Leo Goldsmith and Jenny Jediny in attendance)? Perhaps not, but it's only the start of an exciting spring season at the 92YTribeca Screening Room, which will present several special events over the next few months.

Johannes Krisch And Ursula Strauss In Director GÖTZ Spielmann'S Revanche. Courtesy Janus Films. Contemporary Austrian cinema has been dominated by the works of its two best known names, Michael Haneke and Ulrich Seidl, but now the name of the prodigiously talented Götz Spielmann can be added to that list. Spielmann was born in 1961 in the town of Wels, but grew up in the country's capital, Vienna. As a child he was drawn to film and he began writing and directing in his teens; when he was just 17, he had his first film shown on television. Between 1980 and 1987, he studied film at the Vienna Film Academy, part of the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, where his professors included the directors Harald Zusanek and Axel Corti....
