Weinstein-Disney Divorce Round-Up
Now that independent film producers/champions of truth, justice, and the American Way Bob and Harvey Weinstein have extricated themselves from the dirty shackles of the Disney Media Conglomerate that looked to thwart their efforts to make great movies at every turn, it's time for a quick-round-up of the post-split coverage.
The trades teased with the divorce metaphor, but that facile comparison (which we've been happy to use ourselves) disappears once you click through. The LAT 's headline inaccurately notes that Disney and Miramax are splitting. Silly editors, Disney is keeping Miramax!:
