"Reprise" rights to Miramax, Red Envelope

Netflix

First-time feature director Joachim Trier's "Reprise"
centers on the longtime friendship between two young, aspiring
novelists (Anders Danielsen Lie and Espen Klouman Hoiner) and
the many dramatic twists and turns in their lives. The film won
the Discovery Award at the 2006 Toronto International Film
Festival.

Red Envelope also recently joined Samuel Goldwyn Films and
Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions Group to acquire U.S.
rights to Lakeshore Entertainment's drama "Elegy," starring
Penelope Cruz and Ben Kingsley.

Red Envelope plans promotional campaigns for the theatrical
runs of both films before releasing the films as Netflix
rentals. "Reprise" opens May 16, and "Elegy" hits theaters in
August.
