The 2017 Film Independent Spirit Awards happen February 25 on the beach in Santa Monica and will be broadcast live on IFC at 2p/5e.  Not sure if we will get to see them in Australia.  It’s possible one of the Arts channels on FOXTEL may screen.  I will update this post once I know.

Thanks Posh for the HQ pic.

I think this might be a first for Finland.  It also looks like it’s closing film – full schedule here

 

We previously posted that the release of Robert Pattinson “The Childhood of a Leader” was 17 November 2016.  Both NOS and SAPO are now showing the release as 24 November 2016.

Amazon Canada has a preorder link for Robert Pattinson “The Childhood of a Leader” DVD with a release date the same day as the US – 22 November 2016.  I’m guessing that’s why they are referring to it as an import.

The State Theatre in Traverse City, Michigan is screening Robert Pattinson’s “The Childhood of a Leader”, twice per day for the next week.  Great opportunity to see this film on the big screen. I love art house cinemas that appreciate great films.  Tickets can be purchased online by clicking on relevant session here
