BEGIN AGAIN TO CLOSE THE 2014 TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ON APRIL 26th March 20th, 2014
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BEGIN AGAIN TO CLOSE THE 2014 TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ON APRIL 26th
(NEW YORK, NY) March 20, 2014 The Tribeca Film Festival (TFF), presented by AT&T, announced today that John Carney's comedy, Begin Again (formerly Can A Song Save Your Life?), starring Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo, Hailee Steinfeld, and Adam Levine, will close the 13th edition on Saturday, April 26th at BMCC Tribeca PAC.
From writer-director John Carney (Once), Begin Again is a soul-stirring comedy about what happens when lost souls meet and make beautiful music together. Gretta (Keira Knightley) and her long-time boyfriend Dave (Adam Levine) are college sweethearts and songwriting partners who decamp for New York when he lands a deal with a major label. But the trappings of his new-found fame soon tempt Dave to stray, and a reeling, lovelorn Gretta is left on her own. Her world takes a turn for the better when Dan (Mark Ruffalo), a disgraced record-label exec, stumbles upon her performing on an East Village stage and is immediately captivated by her raw talent. From this chance encounter emerges an enchanting portrait of a mutually transformative collaboration, set to the soundtrack of a summer in New York City. The film will be released by The Weinstein Company in July.
We close our festival with Tribeca alum John Carney s Begin Again. This beautiful music infused New York story encompasses the spirit of Tribeca where music, film and performance play such a key part of this year's program, said Jane Rosenthal, CEO and co-founder of the Tribeca Film Festival. To be able to work with our neighbor and dear friend Harvey Weinstein and The Weinstein Company to bring this film to U.S. audiences for the first time is a bonus for our entire community.
Begin Again is a true New York story about the magical opportunities that can be found under this great city's bright lights. That said, I can't think of a better place to have its U.S. premiere than the Tribeca Film Festival, said John Carney.
The 13th annual Tribeca Film Festival will take place from April 16-27, 2014.
