Another movie named Breathe is being released in October. That might be the problem as well. |

 . I really don't understand why Simon or somebody else from the movie give us some more infos. Why this secrecy?
Don't they want to tease people to get excited about this movie? There are hardly any photos. Other movies bring out promo photos or pics from the shootings, infos about the project while it was shot. But with this movie, almost nothing, it's really strange ... |

A tiny little instagram picture would be great to let us know that he's still alive at least! Missing TM a lot these days. |

Thank you for the update DSP, such a long time to wait! A candidate for Cannes perhaps? |

Quote bee (  ) such a long time to wait!
Oh yes! I suppose the release in October of the movie entitled "Breathe" has something to do with the delay?
Quote bee ( ) A candidate for Cannes perhaps?
Maybe… Cannes Festival 2018 is opening on May 9, 2018. Breath could feature in the"First Films" category.
I have some doubts regarding the "Official Selection" though. It's better if Breath is presented as a Coming of Age kind of movie, rather than a Surf movie.

So do I. Would be nice if he got a role in a movie, or even an appearance in a show between august 2017 and may 2018! Just to show the public he's still around! |

Thanks a lot for the update Marie. So long to wait...but I remember he once said that Breath would premier in Cannes. I doubt the movie will be shown in my city. So I might have to wait for the DVD. It really would be nice if he'd start working again. I miss him! |

I'm sure Breath will be worth the wait and who knows what Simon might be planning to do? We shall see. |

Bad news… from the Sydney Morning Herald All this may be an explanation why the release of the movie has been delayed ?
Simon Baker's film Breath runs into ugly dispute over financing
A film adaptation of Tim Winton's acclaimed novel Breath, directed by The Mentalist star Simon Baker, has run into a messy legal dispute before it has even premiered.
A company that was discussing financing the Australian drama, Arclight Films, is threatening legal action against the production company.
A letter from Los Angeles lawyer Roderick J. Lindblom claims Breath Productions' actions have left it open to compensation of more than $US3.1 million ($3.9 million) plus attorney's fees and costs.
It alleges that Arclight agreed to finance the film through a loan of $3.053 million and a distribution guarantee of $1 million towards the budget of $8.998 million.
But early last year, it says, Breath Productions began manipulating Arclight's position on the film by trying to find a better deal elsewhere.
Breath producer Jamie Hilton rejected the allegations.
"Our advice is that this claim is entirely without merit," he said, adding: "We look forward to bringing Breath to Australian and international audiences."
The dispute is an unhappy development for a film that was shot with high hopes in Western Australia.
As well as directing, Baker plays a reclusive surfer with newcomers Samson Coulter and Ben Spence as two teenagers who form an unlikely bond with him and his wife in the 1970s.
The cast also includes Elizabeth Debicki, Richard Roxburgh and Rachael Blake.
Baker returned to Australia from living and working in Los Angeles for 18 years to shoot the film, which is based on a novel that won the Miles Franklin award in 2009.
In an announcement at the Cannes Film Festival two years ago, he said he was "beyond excited" to be shooting the film.
"When I first read Breath, I knew I had to somehow make the film," he said. "The gathering storm of the story, detailed and intimate against the power and scope of the rugged setting, struck me as incredibly cinematic."
Hilton, who is best known for The Little Death, is producing Breath with American Mark Johnson, who won an Oscar for Rain Man and two Emmys for Breaking Bad.
Johnson fell in love with the novel and realised it was ideal material for a film while shooting the horror movie Don't Be Afraid of the Dark in Melbourne eight years ago.
"Its themes were universal yet, for me, it was such a specific Australian story," he said.
Winton's novels have previously been adapted for TV series Cloudstreet and Lockie Leonard and the films In the Winter Dark, That Eye, The Sky and The Turning.
