That Turko-German director Fatih Akin’s next fiction film - he’s also working on a doc - is a comedy is less surprising than it may appear to those who only know the man’s work through the absolutely searing Head On .

The Weinstein Co has finally set a release date for Quentin Tarantino’s next film. Inglourious Basterds will hit theaters on August 21st 2009 — that’s right, the film got a late Summer slot! I never imagined Basterds as a Summer movie. For some reason it seems like the type of movie which should be released in late Fall, during Award season. This notion probably comes from the fact that every Tarantino...
