LA Times on "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane" -- what happened?

all the boys love mandy laneThe Sunday Los Angeles Times has a nearly 1200 word feature article on the story behind the on-again off-again release of All the Boys Love Mandy Lane.

It's a lot to chew on, but there is a slight uptick in the size of the release. Senator's Marco Weber is now putting the number as high as 1200 screens (previously we'd heard "at least 1000").

Here is an excerpt:

Early next year, the film is scheduled to be the first theatrical release of Senator Entertainment US, a newly formed production and distribution entity affiliated with Germany's Senator Entertainment AG, which promises to give the film the support the Weinstein Co. wouldn't.

Marco Weber, president and chief executive of the new American division, says he will release "Mandy Lane" on as many as 1,200 screens.

"I am incredibly impressed by this film," Weber says. "I feel like it represents a new generation of teen horror movies."
