The Weinstein Company Acquiring 'Tracks' As John Curran Pic Has Double Premiere At Venice And Telluride Fests Sep 1st 2013, 21:18, by MIKE FLEMING JR EXCLUSIVE: I’m told that the first major acquisition on the ground at the weekend festivals will be a Weinstein Company deal for U.S. rights to Tracks, the John Curran-directed film that stars Mia Wasikowska and Adam Driver. The deal with backer HanWay Films is being made right now, after the picture made its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival, where it is playing in competition. The film’s U.S. premiere is this weekend at Telluride before it heads for the Toronto Film Festival next week. Tracks, scripted by Marion Nelson, is based on a memoir by Robyn Davidson. It tells the harrowing story of how Davidson repaired her tattered life after the breakup of her marriage and death of her mother, by trekking solo through the desert in Australia. Driver plays a photographer for National Geographic who chronicled her 2,000 mile journey. The deal is being made by CAA.
