RETREAT (2011) World Premiere at Fantasia Film Festival


Montreal, June 27, 2011 - While less than two weeks away from announcing the full line-up of its 15th edition, Montreal's Fantasia International Film Festival has revealed a first wave of titles and happenings. The full 130-feature array of titles will be announced at our press conference on July 7.

RETREAT - UK - Dir: Carl Tibbets

Cillian Murphy and Thandie Newton star as a couple who journey to an island retreat in order to heal recently-opened wounds. They are completely isolated from the world. Alone. That is, until a blood-spattered man (Jamie Bell) washes ashore with terrible news of an airborne plague sweeping across Europe.

A brilliantly-staged slow-burn thriller that builds to absolutely ferocious horror,
RETREAT is one of this year's strongest discoveries.
World Premiere hosted by Director Carl Tibbetts.

FILTH (2012) Herald Scotland Article - Jamie bell



From the Herald Scotland article on Martin Compston
another confirmation of Jamie Bell in cast of FILTH...

During Compston’s last trip to the US he met Janet Hirshenson, the casting director on such titles as The Da Vinci Code, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Mrs Doubtfire, Jurassic Park, A Few Good Men, and many others.

Hirshenson had been passed a tape of Compston in SoulBoy, Shimmy Marcus’s northern soul drama. Impressed, the meeting led to a job – back in Edinburgh. Filming on Filth, an adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s novel, starts in October. Set for release next year, the cast list so far announced also includes Jamie Bell (The Eagle) and Brendan Gleeson (In Bruges).Link

“Irvine Welsh is one of my heroes, I’ve read everything he’s ever written. Filth is his best book, I think. Just as a narrative it’s genius.

“There are a couple of things I thought would be hard to take over to a film, but they’ve done so well with it.”

Jamie Bell has been confirmed as a cast member of
FILTH
directed by Jon S. Baird

Filming starts in Edinburgh in October
with a release in 2012

Short Synopsis

With the Christmas season in full swing, Detective BRUCE ROBERTSON (James McAvoy) is winding down at work and looking forward to his trip to Amsterdam, for a weekend of debauchery and the psychological manipulation of his best friend. The last thing BRUCE needs is a trivial murder case to solve; despite it providing an ideal opportunity to eliminate his rival colleagues in the race for promotion - a promotion BRUCE so desperately craves. But our hero has other obstacles to overcome, including: alcohol & drug addiction, a dramatic deterioration in his mental health, and some increasingly demanding extra-marital affairs.
