This interview was originally published during indieWIRE's coverage of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. Three Courts opens in limited release this Friday, March 11th. Eric Mendelsohn, whose first two films, Through an Open Window and Judy Berlin (Sundance ’99 alum), screened in the Un Certain Regard section at Cannes, hit the Sundance festival circuit for the second time with his latest film, Three Yards. “Three short but potentially life-changing adventures unfold on one seemingly ordinary autumn day.
In a genial suburban neighborhood, an emotionally troubled businessman (Elias Koteas) wanders around his hometown waiting for a delayed flight, a star-struck housewife (Edie Falco) embarks on a strange journey when she drops off her famous neighbor at the local ferry, and an eight-year-old girl takes a wrong turn on the way to school and finds herself unexpectedly thrust into the world of adults.” [Sneak peek courtesy of the Sundance Film Festival] Three Yards Director: Eric Mendelsohn Writer: Eric Mendelsohn Starring: Embeth Davidtz, Go.
