VMI Worldwide has saddled up territories including the U.K., France and Germany for Potsy Ponciroli's well-received feature, which had it world premiere on the Lido on Tuesday night.
‘s David Rooney said that the film “plays out for much of its taut buildup and violent climax as a well-crafted exercise in old-fashioned but durable genre tropes. But it evolves into a satisfying reflection on the more complicated, somber realities behind the icons of the Wild West, separated from the embroidery of legend.”
“The flurry of deals are not surprising given the quality of the film but feels great all the same,” said Andre Relis, CEO of VMI Worldwide .is produced by Shannon Houchins and Michael Hagerty. Executive producers are Alex Siskin, Garson Foos, Bob Emmer, Jordan Fields, Richard Foos, Trevor O’Neil and Blake Nelson.
“There has always been, and always will be, a place in the international market for an elevated Western with high profile cast, compelling characters and lots of action. So we’re thrilled to partner with VMI, whose deep experience with genre films and strong relationships with buyers will propel sales offar and wide,” said Julie Dansker, Shout’s head of new content sales and Jordan Fields, executive producer and Shout’s vice president of acquisitions.
“While this is a traditional American western, the story and characters transcend the genre and are relatable in any region of the world,” added Shannon Houchins, producer/CEO Hideout Pictures. “We’re excited to see how the international community responds.”
