Fall on Your Sword recently scored two films that will be premiering at the Sundance Film Festival later this month. Competing in the US Dramatic category is the drama Nobody Walks. The film is directed by Ry Russo-Young (You Won’t Miss Me ) and co-written by Lena Dunham (Tiny Furniture). The movie starring John Krasinski, Olivia Thirlby, Rosemarie DeWitt, Justin Kirk, India Ennenga and Dylan McDermott follows a young, charismatic artist from New York who moves into a Los Angeles family’s home, only to find her disrupting their lives. Jonathan Schwartz (Like Crazy), Andrea Sperling (Harsh Times) and Alicia Van Couvering (Tiny Furniture) are producing. Nobody Walks will be looking for distribution at the festival.
Premiering in the NEXT section at Sundance is the drama Twenty-Eight Hotel Rooms written and directed by Matt Ross who is best known as an actor (recently seen in American Horror Story) who makes his feature directing debut on the movie. The indie film stars Chris Messina and Marin Ireland as a novelist and a corporate accountant who find themselves in bed together while traveling for work in a city far from their homes. Lynette Howell (Blue Valentine, Half Nelson), Louise Runge & Samantha Housman (I Am Bad) are the producers of the drama.
Fall on Your Sword had their breakout score with last year’s sci-fi indie drama Another Earth, which also premiered in Sundance. The composer duo of Will Bates and Phil Mossman also has The Normals directed by Kevin Patrick Connors and starring Bryan Greenberg and Jess Weixler and the drama Generation Um… written and directed by Mark Mann and starring Keanu Reeves expected to come out in 2012. Both scores have been completed a while ago.
