FROZEN RIVER TO SONY PICTURES CLASSICS 

Sharon Swart and Mike Jones in Variety are reporting that Courtney Hunt's Frozen River, a character-based thriller starring Melissa Leo which was the first film I saw at Sundance and one of the best, has sold to Sony PIctures Classics for a low-to-mid six-figure sum. I'll try to get some further thoughts about this film up on the blog before the end of the festival.
