Fox Searchlight just bought the US distribution rights for "Jackie", which screened at both the Venice and Toronto film festivals. Natalie Portman is receiving great reviews for her portrayal of Jackie Kennedy in the days immediately following the assassination of her husband in 1963. The film co-stars Greta Gerwig, Billy Crudup, and John Hurt. It also marks the English-language debut of Chilean director Pablo Larrain. Set for a December 9th release, you can catch a clip from the film on YouTube.
