Kelly Perks Up

//

Could the crap-bullet be dodged? I'm still hoping Southland Tales, and director Richard Kelly's career, can be salvaged. Let's hope this isn't just spin.

From DH:

"Director Richard Kelly has cited the recent Hot Dog Magazine comments about his upcoming film "Southland Tales" as being "out of context" and done during Cannes back in May. [you can read about those comments here]

In a comment on his MySpace blog this week, Kelly says "I have been finishing A SHORTER cut of Southland Tales under their [Sony Pictures] supervision. It has been a great experience and I feel like the film is now in better shape than ever. The film will absolutely be released in theaters, and Sony is still deciding on an appropriate release date and strategy".

He adds: "I am incredibly proud of this film and excited for it to be seen. What you will see in theaters will absolutely be my cut of the film"."

Hopefully we can see this before too long, my hard-on is decidedly weakening by the month.
