About the Film:
 
HOUNDDOG," a drama set in the 1950s American South, is about a troubled 12-year old girl (Dakota Fanning) who finds solace from an abusive life in the music of Elvis Presley. Presley’s music is placed strategically throughout the film, creating a mural of a melancholy life that finds its release and healing through singing the Blues.

I hope they find a distributor for this movie. Even though I heard it isn't all that great of a movie, Dakota is supposed to be really good in it.

What hapened to all the outcry? The rage and indignation? The weeping and gnashing of teeth? Gone. They've moved on to the next thing to be outraged about...perhaps Britney's parenting skills. It just goes to show that the outrage really wasn't so much about the film as much as it was the latest thing to grab headlines and stir controversy, to scream and yell and call for a Congressional invetigation (or perhaps the newest thing: a Constitutional amendment banning it!). Next.

Hannity and Colmes are busy I guess.

Once a studio agrees to distribute, we look forward to a spring 2008 release. Of course, Dak also has PUSH, CORALINE, and WINGED CREATURES slated for '08 so brace yourself for the hue and cry of "DAKOTA FANNING IS IN EVERYTHING."
