Just ahead of its Saturday premiere in the SXSW Visions section, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions (Spwa) have acquired all international rights on writer-director Jack Plotnick's comedy 'Space Station 76.' The film stars Patrick Wilson, Liv Tyler and "2001: A Space Odyssey" star Keir Dullea. Domestic rights are still up for grabs via Kevin Iwashina and Zac Bright of Preferred Content. Space Station 76 is a comedic drama about a group of people (and several robots) living on a space station in a 1970’s-version of the future. When a new Assistant Captain arrives, she inadvertently ignites tensions among the crew, prompting them to confront their darkest secrets. Barely contained lust, jealousy, and anger all bubble to the surface, becoming just as dangerous as the asteroid that’s heading right for them. The film was produced by Edward Parks, Rachel Ward, Dan Burks, Joel Michaely and Katherine Ann McGregor. Niraj Bhatia...

Earlier this month the nominations were announced for 21st annual Producer Guild of America Awards honoring outstanding producers for their achievement in feature films and television. Obviously we won't run through the winners for TV series awards (see those at the PGA website) but we have the winners for the three motion picture categories for feature films, animation and documentaries. Remember, since the nominations were a good indicator of who might get an Oscar nomination (they'll be announced on January 24th) these could also be our Oscar winners in February. See the winners below! Darryl F. Zanuck Producer of the Year Award: The Artist Producers: Thomas Langmann PGA Producer of the Year Award in Animation: The Adventures of Tintin Producer: Peter Jackson, Kathleen Kennedy, Steven Spielberg PGA Producer of the Year Award in Documentaries: Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest Producer: Debra Koffler, Frank Mele, Edward Parks,...

Last night the Producers Guild of America (PGA) gave out awards for achievement in films and television released in 2011. The big winner was The Artist, which took home the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures. As the winner of this award takes the Best Picture Oscar three times out of four, any betting on the top Oscar honor is pretty much over at this point. Read on for the full list of winners. The PGA website provides the list. In each case I've left the full slate of nominees, and winners are bolded. I'm happy to see the excellent A Tribe Calle Quest doc, Beats, Rhymes and Life, picking up the award for best documentary. The Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures: The Artist Producer: Thomas Langmann Bridesmaids Producers: Judd Apatow, Barry Mendel, Clayton Townsend The Descendants Producers: Jim Burke,...

I’m seeing The Artist in a little under two hours from when this is typed, but the awards mania surrounding the film already has me going in pessimistic. Now, most would feel the opposite — they hear something is great, they (naturally) go in thinking it’ll be great. But I often have a mixed reaction to many a year’s Best Picture favorite, and when you add on the fact that most people — whose taste I trust, that is — aren’t very big fans…
Who cares, though. It’s, no matter what, probably taking the Academy’s top honor — a useless piece of metal, but that’s a different discussion — and this latest win almost cements it as fact. Said win is the Producers Guild of America’s Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures — an award that, over the past four years, has corresponded...

hollywoodnews.com: It’s beginning to look a bit like a landslide. The Producers Guild of America is the latest group to reward Michel Hazanavicius’ “The Artist” with its year-end Best Picture honors, paving the way for what could be Oscar domination next month.
The black-and-white and predominantly silent film has been picking up top prizes throughout the season, winning Best Picture awards at the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards and the Golden Globes. On accepting the PGA distinction, producer Thomas Langmann said that when they “dreamed of making ‘The Artist,’ we knew we were dreaming of writing a love letter to American cinema.”
Oscar nominations arrive on Tuesday morning, and “The Artist” is expected to lead all films with the most nominations. It’s best to caution against landslide victories in what amounts to “the primaries.” Last year, David Fincher’s “The Social Network” did very...
