There have been a behind the scenes story for this one, because it may soon become legendary.
With a screenplay from Bret Easton Ellis, The Canyons is described as a contemporary L.A. noir, said to be about the dangers of sexual obsession and ambition, both personally and professionally, among a group of young people in their 20s and how one chance meeting connected to the past unravels all of their lives, resulting in deceit, paranoia, cruel mind games and ultimately violence.
IFC will bring it to theaters in New York on August 2 followed by an August 9 release, after which (or during) I suspect it will be available On Demand.
