Boogie Woogie in Theatres April 23
Posted at 1:28 PM (PST) on Wednesday, February 17, 2010
Duncan Ward’s BOOGIE WOOGIE Acquired
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010
IFC Films News
Theatrical release set for April 23rd, 2010 with an accompanying nationwide Video On Demand release
New York (NY) (February XX, 2010) – IFC Films, the leading American distributor of independent and foreign films, announced today it has acquired North American rights to Duncan Ward’s BOOGIE WOOGIE. IFC Films is releasing the film theatrically on April 23rd and nationwide on video on demand beginning April 21st.
Adapted by Danny Moynihan from his novel of the same name, BOOGIE WOOGIE is a wicked satire set against the backdrop of the contemporary London art scene where lust, ambition and power prevail while success and failure precariously balance on a knife edge.
The film features an amazing ensemble cast including Gillian Anderson, Alan Cumming, Heather Graham, Danny Huston, Jack Huston, Christopher Lee, Joanna Lumley, Simon McBurney, Meredith Ostrom, Charlotte Rampling, Amanda Seyfried, Stellan Skarsgård, and Jaime Winstone.
BOOGIE WOOGIE premiered last year at the Edinburgh Film Festival.
The story centres around the acquisition of Mondrian’s abstract painting “Boogie Woogie”. The film charts the schemings of the art dealers, collectors, artists and wannabees who are all willing to use any means necessary to achieve their own personal ambitions. Each parallel story plummets towards its own depraved and egotistical conclusion until the stories collide, leading to a shocking finale.
BOOGIE WOOGIE is directed by Duncan Ward. The film is an Autonomous/Colourframe Production with S Films, in association with Constance Media, Firefly Films, Muse Productions, P&C Arcade Films and Magna Films. BOOGIE WOOGIE is produced by Cat Villiers, Chris Simon, Kami Naghdi and Danny Moynihan.
The deal for BOOGIE WOOGIE was negotiated by Arianna Bocco, IFC Films VP of Acquisitions and Co-Productions.
Jonathan Sehring, President of IFC Entertainment, said, “Duncan Ward and Danny Moynihan have crafted a satirical and hilarious Altman-esque send-up of an art world gone mad. We are thrilled to be working with the extraordinary cast and filmmakers of BOOGIE WOOGIE and our friends at The Works. This is a great film for all of our platforms and we are incredibly excited by its prospects.”
Carl Clifton, MD of The Works International, comments: “Boogie Woogie is outrageous, sexy and fun. IFC Films is a perfect fit for it. We’re thrilled to be partnering with them.”

BRITISH menswear heritage label Dunhill is gearing up to host a charity auction in aid of The Prostate Cancer Charity this Valentine's Day and has asked some famous ladies to lend their lips to the cause. Jerry Hall, Louise Redknapp, Tamsin Eggerton, Poppy Delevingne, Gillian Anderson, Emilia Fox, Joanna Page and Keeley Hawes have all planted a kiss on a Dunhill collar to support the cause.
"Lipstick on a gentleman's collar is the epitome of old school glamour and romance," Dunhill creative director - and the British Fashion Awards' Menswear Designer of the Year - Kim Jones told VOGUE.COM. "We have taken this iconic notion and added a charity element - by auctioning a number of Dunhill collars kissed by great ladies. The best bit is that all the proceeds from the auction will go to The Prostate Cancer Charity."
The collars are now on display at the London Home of Alfred Dunhill, Bourdon House in Mayfair, and will be auctioned on eBay. All proceeds will go to The Prostate Cancer Charity and each successful bidder will not only receive the autographed collar but also a voucher for a Dunhill custom made tailored shirt, to be redeemed at Bourdon House.
