“Ondine” Gets US Distributer

ondine_06The following good news for US fans.. and info on a new PG-13 rating for “Ondine” comes in an exclusive from:Movieline.com.

EXCLUSIVE: Neil Jordan’s Ondine Lands With Magnolia Pictures

Written by S.T. VanAirsdale

Movieline has learned that Magnolia Pictures has acquired U.S. rights to Neil Jordan’s twisty Irish fantasy Ondine, one of our bidding-war favorites from last year’s Toronto International Film Festival and what appears to the final unreleased catalog cast-off from the defunct Paramount Vantage. Alas, it’s not likely to be the version that premiered up North.

The film features Colin Farrell as a fisherman who snares a beautiful, mysterious woman while trolling off the Irish coast. His ill daughter thinks the woman is a mermaid; his ex-wife thinks she’s just trouble. And a strange man with answers to everything stalks the proceedings in the background. It’s a bit of a trip, totally beautiful, kind of all over the place, and the version I saw at TIFF featured a racy, operatic sex scene that must have been cut to achieve the film’s recently awarded PG-13 rating. (Farrell and co-star Alicja Bachleda became an item on the set, welcoming a son last October.)

Magnolia reps did not respond to requests for comment, but their acquisition gives them two well-received Irish indies on the distributor’s 2010 slate. Its other pick-up The Eclipse this week tied Ondine for the most Irish Film and Television Awards nominations with eight, including Best Picture, Director and Actor. More later on a release date as details trickle through.

Alicja’s mother, Lidia Bachleda-Curus, confirmed to the Associated Press that the baptism took place but refused to give more details, for privacy reasons.
