Duncan Jones Plans to Turn Mute into a Graphic Novel

When we last reported on Duncan Jones' Mute, the project was in limbo.  The script is reportedly takes cues from Ridley Scott's Blade Runner and centers on a mute bartender in 2046 Berlin who must go against the city’s gangsters in order to find his girlfriend.  Unfortunately, that doesn't translate well to a collector's cup so the project is having trouble finding funding.  Jones, whose new film Source Code opens April 1st, says that he's going to adapt the story in to a graphic novel and hope that makes the property more attractive to investors.  Speaking to Gordon and the Whale, Jones explains:Although, I can sort of tell you that I’ve been talking to my producer today and we have decided that we’re going to release Mute as a graphic novel. Because we’ve had so many problems trying to get this film made, you know?»

Martin Scorsese And Paul Schrader Talk “Taxi Driver” At 35

Celebrating the 35th anniversary of Martin Scorsese‘s seminal film Taxi Driver, Sony Pictures and The Film Foundation, Scorsese’s film preservation non-profit, held a premiere screening of their 4k restoration of the film at the DGA in New York City last night, which also included a conversation with Scorsese and Taxi Driver screenwriter Paul Schrader moderated by critic Kent Jones.

The restoration, which will be available on Blu-ray on April 5 and screening theatrically at AMC theaters beginning March 19 (NYC’s Film Forum will show a new 35mm print starting the 18th), took most of 2010 for Sony to accomplish. According to a flier given to audience members last night, the original Taxi Driver negative was scanned with a specially designed wetgate 4k scanner at Cineric in New York with color correction completed at Colorworks (which also created the new 35mm negative), all under the supervision of d.p. Michael Chapman and Scorsese.»
