Rivette is Making Another Film!

If a tree falls in the woods and no one at Criterion hears it...

Via Variety:

Birkin, Castellitto to star in Rivette film
Project to begin filming by year's end

Jane Birkin and Italo Cannes jury member Sergio Castellitto will topline French auteur Jacques Rivette's next pic.

Details of Rivette's latest are being kept under wraps beyond the fact that shooting will begin by year's end, plus the film by the most experimental of Gaul's New Wave helmers will be partly set in Italy.

Rivette's longtime producer Martine Marignac is producing with Italy's Roberto Cicutto and Luigi Musini's new On My Own shingle as minority co-producers.

Birkin, who starred in Michelangelo Antonioni's "Blow Up," is among France's biggest stars. Castellitto's credits include "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian," and Marco Bellocchio's "The Wedding Director."
