Content announced today that Leif Tilden's LIFE AT THESE SPEEDS, featuring Douglas Booth (NOAH, JUPITER ASCENDING), Billy Crudup (ALMOST FAMOUS, WATCHMEN), AnnaSophia Robb (BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA, SOUL SURFER) and Sam Rockwell (MOON, THE WAY WAY BACK), will commence production this Fall. Content will be handling worldwide sales and introducing the film to buyers at the Cannes International Film Festival next week. Written by Marc Novak, the film is produced by Tom Butterfield (THE TRUST) and Scott Alvarez (DOWN FOR LIFE).
LIFE AT THESE SPEEDS is an uplifting and emotional romantic drama about the power of our happiest memories to sustain us in the worst of times. After a teenager’s best friends die in a tragic accident, he finds that running allows him to remember them perfectly. Running, however, also brings him a certain notoriety, and he soon finds himself caught between keeping the past alive and making new memories in the present.
Content's Jamie Carmichael said: “Every now and then a script comes from left field and entirely captures your imagination and your heart. LIFE AT THESE SPEEDS is that script. It's powerful, emotional, inspiring and up-lifting – Leif, Tom and Scott have put together something truly beautiful.”
