International documentary sales firm Cinephil has acquired “The Wolves Always Come at Night” from writer-director Gabrielle Brady, which will world premiere at Toronto Film Festival in Platform Competition. Variety is debuting the first-look clip.

Cinephil has worldwide rights excluding the U.K. (BBC Storyville), Australia and New Zealand (Madman Entertainment), Germany and France (Swr/Arte), and Mongolia (Guru Media).

The hybrid narrative-documentary follows the journey of a rural sheep herding family in Mongolia who are forced to give up their way of life after an extremely brutal winter. Herders Davaasuren Dagvasuren and Otgonzaya Dashzeveg invited the film team into their personal lives as they went through this difficult transition, portraying themselves in the film and they are also credited as writers of the story.

Brady said: “The film entwines observational documentary moments with loosely composed scenarios where Daava and Zaya traverse their memories. As co-writers we have traced their experiences together.

Treat Williams, the versatile actor who starred as a New York City neurosurgeon who moves his family to Colorado on the WB series Everwood and in such films as Sidney Lumet’s Prince of the City and Milos Forman‘s Hair, died Monday in a motorcycle accident in Vermont. He was 71.

His agent, Barry McPherson of APA, confirmed Williams’ death in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.

An initial investigation indicated that the driver of the car “stopped, signaled a left turn and then turned into the path of a northbound 1986 Honda VT700c motorcycle operated by Williams. Williams was unable to avoid a collision and was thrown from his motorcycle. He suffered critical injuries and was airlifted to Albany Medical Center in Albany,...

"See How They Run" is a whodunit about whodunits, a murder mystery movie about a murder behind the scenes of a murder mystery play. And that's just the beginning of the movie's meta touches, which involve fictional detectives trying to solve a fictional crime committed during the staging of a very real show — the adaptation of Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap," which is still running to this day in London's West End. And that's before you get to the inside jokes about William Shakespeare and Tom Stoppard.

Since Noah Garfinkel and I are both exquisite connoisseurs of fine cuisine, Top Chef, and putting the letter Z on the end of thingz, we decided to take a trip to the Asian-inspired snack-food jaunt to sample some real-life Top Chef cooking, just like our moms (the lesbians from Top Chef Season 4) used to make. Social Eatz — named for its laid-back-but-upscale ambiance and also Z — is located at 53rd st and 2nd Avenue, right in the heart of Manhattan’s “What The F*ck Is Over Here After 5 pm, Werewolves Or Something?” District. When we arrived at the restaurant, we couldn’t help but immediately notice that it’s conveniently located right next to a not-unpornographic DVD depot: Immediately after entering, Noah used the bathroom to “wash his...
