"Half" still good

The end of Sundance brought 2 things: a huge snow storm and a small deal for the well-received and strong word-of-mouth Dramatic Competition film Half Nelson. ThinkFilm, which came to the festival with the Beastie Boys concert doc Awesome: I Fuckin' Shot That, picked up the Worldwide rights to the Ryan Gosling and newcomer Shareeka Epps starrer on Sunday.  Gosling and Epps performances have received a tremendous amount of positive buzz since the film's first screening at Sundance earlier in the week.

Half Nelson follows the improbable relationship between a white schoolteacher, his African-American student and a local drug dealer.  The film is a feature-length version of writer/director Ryan Fleck's Sundance-winning short film Gowanus, Brooklyn.

ThinkFilm is said to be planning a late summer or early fall release.
