Sex Sells: Kutcher Spreads To Anchor Bay & TVA For Just Under $4m
By Gregg Goldstein
In the biggest sale of this year's Sundance fest, the Ashton Kutcher sex dramedy, Spread, sold US and Austrailian rights to Overture's sister company, Anchor Bay and Canadian rights to TVA in a deal totaling just under four million dollars.
It's a rare case of the top Sundance sale coming just before the end of the festival. Graham Taylor of Endeavor Independence and Roeg Sutherland of CAA spearheaded the deal.
It could be the biggest release so far for Anchor Bay, which plans an aggressive late summer release. Anne Heche also stars in the Shampoo-like tale of an ambitious almost-gigolo.
(more to come)

Wow...so what happened to all the bad buzz for this flick? Best comments I heard regarded Heche's maintenance of her bod at her age...

"Anne Heche also stars in the Shampoo-like tale of an ambitious almost-gigolo."
