Congratulations to Stuck Between Stations. The Tff 2011 film has been picked up for distribution by Wrekin Hill Entertainment in partnership with Neca Films. Stuck Between Stations centers around Casper (Sam Rosen), a young soldier who serendipitously encounters his childhood crush, Rebecca (Zoe Lister-Jones), while home on bereavement leave from Afghanistan after the death of his father. Over the course of one night, these two find themselves trapped on a bittersweet rollercoaster of reconnecting and growing close, but plagued by the grey cloud of Casper's imminent return to war looming above them. On November 4, Wrekin Hill began a limited theatrical release of Brady Kiernan's poignant film (also featuring Josh Hartnett and Michael Imperioli) at the ReRun Gastropub Theater in Brooklyn. Lionsgate is also planning to release the film on DVD and VOD in March 2012. The film (written by Nat Bennett and star Rosen), which beautifully showcases Minneapolis at night, will...

Today's guest post comes from two emerging filmmakers, Sam Rosen and Nat Bennett, who had a screenplay that caught my eye back when. Now they have their first film in the Tribeca Film Festival. Their path to getting it made revealed some lessons, ones that are applicable to all of us. You can boil it down to don't wait or seek permission; find good collaborators and get going. But it always more than that too--and they know that. . When you’re a young aspiring filmmaker you hear a lot of stories about how hard it is to make films, how…...

As someone that only watches films rather than make them, my favorite thing about the Red camera, the digital camera that has democratized high quality imagery amongst low budget filmmakers, is the clarity not only of the imagery, but the specificity it allows for regional writer/directors to bring out the best in their hometown. In recent years, we've seen Portland as it's never been shot before by Aaron Katz and crew in "Cold Weather," the Joe Maggio-directed Tribeca selection "The Last Rites of Joe May" captures Chicago in a different light and then there's "Stuck Between Stations," the feature debut of Brady Kiernan, a Minneapolis native who, with cinematographer Bo Hakala, creates a portrait of the city that wouldn't seem out of place if it were framed in the Walker Art Center.
Ultimately, that's what separates Kiernan's film from the so many others that have been born in the wake of "Before Sunrise,...

As I always do, I’ll be taking a closer look at the lineup for any titles worth profiling on this website. The festival runs from April 20th to May 1st. It’s in my backyard, so you know I’ll be covering it!

Thanks to an Ioncinema.com reader, we've got your first glimpse into the look and feel for Stuck Between Stations - a low budget romantic drama by Brady Kiernan (see below), a first time helmer we featured in our American New Wave 25 series. Co-written by Sam Rosen and Nat Bennett, Rosen also shares the bulk of the film's screen time with Indie Queen Zoe Lister-Jones (both co-starred on Breaking Upwards). The film also sees Josh Hartnett in a small role - which should ultimately make it easier for the project to make the rounds. Much like how one might describe Linklater's Before Sunrise, this is the story of two people spending one night together. I think in early 2011, we'll find a little bit of Minneapolis in Park City. Casper (Sam Rosen), a soldier who experienced the horrors of war, fell in love with Rebecca (Zoe Lister-Jones), a once-promising grad student who just killed her career.
