Re: MARGT from end of May ... in litigation but being reedited to appease Searchlight

"Gilbert’s trickiest challenge has been trying to get Kenneth Lonergan’s six-years frozen, too-long Margaret, starring Ruffalo, Matt Damon, Anna Paquin, Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, Olivia Thirlby, and Kieran Culkin, out of the editing bay and into Fox Searchlight release. Lonergan’s follow-up to his acclaimed debut You Can Count on Me is “still in litigation,” says Gilbert. “It’s a great movie with great performances.” The struggle involved the late producer Sydney Pollock and producer Scott Rudin insisting that Gilbert not take the movie away from an auteur final-cut director, whose three-hour cut—which Ruffalo calls a “masterpiece”—didn’t meet Searchlight’s contractual demands for a 2.5 hour film. Martin Scorsese and editor Thelma Schoonmaker have been working on a shorter cut, and Searchlight plans to open the film before year’s end. “If I knew the same facts, I’d do it again,” Gilbert says. “We had all the right ingredients. There’s no way to predict how things go wrong.”

so I wouldn't automatically assume MRUFF will be adjusting for Avengers first.

There's been a lot of rumblings that Margaret would finally get released this year... definitely before Avengers at least. TheWeekendWarrior Jul 19, 20:13

I left a note in the comments section on your website about BCAMP and ATHFM's box office gross. {nm} Paul2k Jul 19, 15:30
