Clement Virgo says Steal Away is his most ambitious work yet - CBC

Music Box Films has acquired North American rights for documentary “Steal This Story, Please!,” and will release the film on all major digital platforms on Oct 20. The film, initially self-distributed by the filmmakers, had a successful theatrical release across the U. S. in the spring, grossing close to $1 million. “Steal This Story, Please!,” which focuses on the work of trailblazing independent journalist Amy Goodman, is directed by Academy Award nominees Carl Deal and Tia Lessin.

Marvel Studios’ release of Avengers: Endgame: Encore was a shrewd gambit for a few reasons: It put the studio’s most successful film back in conversation right after the juggernaut success of Spider-Man: Brand New Day; it tided die-hards over with new footage ahead of December’s Avengers: Doomsday; and, perhaps most importantly, it raked in an additional $138 million for the film, reinstating its position as the worldwide box office champion over James Cameron’s Avatar. Cameron, who certainly doesn’t spend his precious time fretting about such matters as lifetime financial grosses and being the best in the world at stuff, recently expressed his congratulations to Marvel for once again overtaking his 2009 sci-fi film. “You are one of the people,” the director wrote (per The Wrap) in a composite image from Avatar, with Iron Man at the center of a welcoming Na’vi tribe. “Congratulations to Marvel and the #1 Avengers: Endgame: Encore for bringing moviegoers to the cinemas! – Jim Cameron.”
