OK, quick question: what the heck is up with Prozac Nation? Is it done?
Is it going to be released in theaters? I recall it got delayed
because of 9/11 or something...what were the exact details again?

It's been delayed because no one wants to release it.

It played a couple of festivals last year to lacklustre reviews.

There's a European DVD

Basically, indie distribs rely on reviews, and they aren't getting
them.

Yeah, but they also tend not to sit on films they think can make money
with.

I don't know. Have you read DOWN AND DIRTY PICTURES? They get into petty
arguments with the filmmakers and then just dump the film in a couple theatres
or shelve it.

Look at all the awful Miramax films that do get released and don't make money.


Yes, I have -- but there's a difference between films that make money

Prozac Nation is a film that would desperately need critical support,
and the one thing they didn't get at the festival screenings was
critical support.
