TIFF: Magnolia Acquires In Bloom, Starring Thurman

2929 subsid Magnolia Pictures has picked up North American rights to the 2929 production In Bloom, starring Uma Thurman, which debuted at the Toronto International Film Fest this Saturday. The film, directed by Vadim Perleman from Emil Stern's adaptation of Laura Kasischke's novel The Life Before Her Eyes, was repped by Cinetic Media and CAA.

While Magnolia releases films from 2929's HDNet Films, this is the first collaboration between 2929, owned by Wagner/Cuban Companies, a vertically integrated group of entertainment properties co-owned by Todd Wagner and Mark Cuban, and its specialty arm.

Set in a Connecticut suburb, In Bloom is Perelman’s follow up to his Oscar-nominated House of Sand and Fog.
