As the studio continues to shutter Paramount Vantage, a few of the survivors are being moved into a Shiny New Division.... Paramount Worldwide Acquisitions Group . WOO HOO!!!! In other words, they dumped Amy Israel and the rest of the group is going to go look for movies, same as before, except that they really don't want more than a half-dozen acquisitions a year, so they are offering up the idea...

How do you market a critically-acclaimed film about five Indiana high school teens that just happens to be a doc? The film is American Teen , and the hurrahs began at Sundance this year. James Rocchi described it as "an engaging, stylish...
Like 'Breakfast Club' or 'Juno,' but not. WHAT DO "Juno," "Napoleon Dynamite" and "The Breakfast Club" all have in common? In addition to being about high school kids, they are all being used to sell Paramount Vantage's new documentary, "American Teen," one of the summer's trickiest marketing challenges.
If there was any doubt that the Paramount Vantage you know and love or maybe just really like — the art-house darling responsible for An Inconvenient Truth, Babel, Margot at the Wedding, There...
Film News: 'Inconvenient Truth' exec leaves post -- In a sign that Paramount Vantage is morphing from a high-end specialty distributor into more of a Screen Gems-esque genre division, acquisitions exec Amy Israel, who spearheaded the pickups of films such as Oscar-winning doc “An Inconvenient Truth,” is ankling her post at the studio.

Filed under: Drama , Independent , Romance , Newsstand , Movie Marketing , Images , Paramount Vantage , Posters A new poster of The Duchess has appeared online, exclusive to ComingSoon.net. There's a snip of it to the right, and if you click on the lovely Keira Knightley , you'll be taken to the blindingly enormous version.

Filed under: Drama , War , Daniel Craig , Paramount Vantage , Trailers and Clips Maybe it's just me, but is it really a good idea to start promoting a Holocaust drama smack dab in the middle of the summer movie season? I guess you can't blame the makers of Defiance for wanting to start their promotions a little early, though. The new poster for Daniel Craig 's WWII flick has been released (click image...

Filed under: Drama , Romance , Cinematical Indie , Paramount Vantage , Trailers and Clips It's been a long time since we saw the first trailer for The Duchess , an historical period piece starring Keira Knightley as the real-life 18th century Georgina Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire. But the film opens in September, so it's time to start the onslaught of more trailers and clips. First, we have one...
"The Foot Fist Way" could become this summer's sleeper hit. You have to wonder if the big-studio subsidiary (Paramount Vantage) and the star-studded production company (Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's Gary Sanchez Productions) that picked it up really, deep down, want that to happen. This ultra-low-budget film proves you don't need millions of dollars, big-name stars or a dream team of writers to make...
