| | | Rupert Grint to attend 'Driving Lessons' screening
It has been confirmed that Rupert Grint will be in attendance at the screening of his upcoming movie 'Driving Lessons' at the Tribeca Film Festival on Sunday April 30th at 8:30pm in New York. Harry Potter co-star Julie Walters, who plays his on-screen mom Molly Weasley in the Harry Potter films, also stars in the film. Advance tickets for the event are unfortunately sold out, but it may be possible to get tickets at the door on the day of the event. EDIT: According to Cannes Market, 'Driving Lessons' will also be screened at Cannes on May 17th, 18th and 20th (with more possible dates to come).
A film review by the Los Angeles Times is also placing Driving Lessons among this year's Oscar hopefuls!
Thank you Tao for those tips!

Actually as far as I know, Julie won't be attending the festival per my contact unless something has changed.
But yeah, what Jo said. The tickets will be sold at the door, but I'm sure you'd have to get there early to make sure you get them!

Like the fact that DL now has some screenings at The Cannes and has an article about it being oscar worthy!  But that's probably not as exciting for everyone as knowing Rupert will be at Tribeca.  Btw, I don't know when you made admin, so if my congrats are late, I apologize, but congrats. |

Yes, I'm just seeing the other stuff about DL - and that is awesome! In my scouting I swore I saw that Julie was going to be there, but I probably misread. And thanks, hon!  The admin thing is only about a couple hours old, I think it befuddled me.  lmao

I'm very excited about everything with DL. This is so huge. I'm so happy for Rupert. |

This is truly excellent news. I hope everyone who gets to go has fun and bring back great reports  I love the fact that the LA Times said it may be oscar worthy because that seems like a good thing for Rupert's future career after HP is over to have been the star of an Oscar nominated move.

For all the Rupert fans! Quote:
17
The age of terrific young actor Rupert Grint, the redheaded sidekick who finally steps out of Harry Potter’s shadow and shambles his way into a breakout performance in Driving Lessons. Fifty-six is the age of his lovely co-star, Julie Walters, a grande dame of the British telly who plays Maude to Grint’s Harold (Laura Linney plays his mother). Despite the unavoidable comparisons to its predecessor, this film warms the screen with genuine affection.
Which you could've found out by going to either ICM (link in sig or in the post about all things Rupert) or by going to the RGFC (which is linked in my sig as well). |
