A tiny item in today's Variety email made the cinetrix's cynical heart sing:
MAGNOLIA GETS 'OUT'
Plans to share debt docu with Netflix Unusual release for 'Maxed'
Magnolia is close to acquiring rights to "Maxed Out," the critically acclaimed docu about Americans and the debt industry, directed by James Scurlock.
The cinetrix was fortunate enough to see Maxed Out at Full Frame this past April, and she'll feel a lot more hopeful once every man, woman, and child gets a gander at its harrowing tales of Americans' love affair with consumer debt. It made me cry, people. Sling it on your queues, watch and learn, and cut those fucking cards.
