Release Date?


Does anyone know when this film is coming out? If it's already been released then I haven't heard anything about it!

Eh, Dirty Boy?

Hi zwitter_69! I see you at the Rhys Ifans board too!
Nearly every movie preview site just says TBA in 2005. One exception I did find was a Damian Lewis site that said November 2005.

I'll keep checking into it!

The article at the url below says that there are plans to release the film in November 2005 but as far as we know, the producers have not yet finalized distribution agreements (except in France - Quinta Distribution) so it may not be released until 2006.

Thank you dlfan123! Very much appreciated!

As far as I know...there is no release date as of yet. It was a non-competition movie in Cannes...in fact it was shown on the closing night.

reply

Is there not a distribution deal yet for North America for this film???

reply

Nothing has been published (that I've seen anyway) to indicate that a distribution deal has been finalized anywher other than France for Chromophobia.

According to IMDB the film is not going to be released in the UK. Does anyone know whether it's true?

reply

Earlier in December actor Damian Lewis sent an update on his projects to his fan group including the information that Chromophobia will be released in the Spring - but he didn't include any details.

reply

An article I read interviewing Rhys Ifans ends by syaing this film will be released in May.

reply

Here in france it's coming out May 10th

reply

still coming out?
when?

reply

Chromophobia will only be released in France, unfortunately. It came out November 23rd.

In a recent message to his fan group Damian Lewis said that the film is expected to be released in the UK in Spring.

reply

Really? That's exciting for the people in the UK. However, I'm guessing that DVDs released in the UK are not compatible on US DVD players so we'll have to wait even longer. (correct me if I'm wrong here. It'd be nice to know)

reply

UK DVDs are Region 2 and US DVDs are Region 1, they are not compatible unless you have specifically purchased a region free (or multi-region) DVD player.

reply

region free players, also computers can change their reason if you put in a region 2 dvd
its better than nothing i would say
(though id love it to be an official release here)
im also waiting on bernard and doris getting any news AT ALL

reply

There are a lot of films made in Europe that never get released in the US in any format, including a lot of English language films. That's why I broke down a couple of years ago and bought a multi-format/multi-region DVD player. If you look on Amazon or eBay, you can find a good one fore about $100, or sometimes less. Then head to Amazon's UK (or French) sites or Sendit.com among others.

Unfortunately if you are on a tight budget, you may only be able to afford to see these films at rare museum or festival screenings.

So does that mean it's gone straight to DVD and no cinema release date?

reply

In case you're still on the lookout for this film in the cinema, it's UK release date has finally been confirmed - 14th Dec 2007.

reply

In a recent message to his Yahoo! group fans, Damian Lewis mentioned the May release of Chromophobia in Spain and said that the film should be released in the UK in the fall.
