Focus Features Acquires The Kids Are All Right

Last night, Focus Features announced that it had acquired the distribution rights to writer-director Lisa Cholodenko's The Kids Are All Right, which had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival a few days ago. The film, about two teenage children conceived through artificial insemination who go in search of their biological father, stars Annette Bening, Julianne Moore and Mark Ruffalo. Cholodenko's movie will be distributed domestically by Focus, which also has international rights for Great Britain, Germany and South Africa.

Speaking about the movie, Focus Features' CEO James Schamus said, “Lisa has made an extraordinary gem of a film that combines comedic surprise with poignant emotional truth. Not only is The Kids Are All Right infectiously funny and touching, but it’s also entirely accessible. We’re confident that audiences everywhere will fall in love with this family, as brilliantly brought to life by a remarkable cast of actors.”

Cholodenko added that “The Kids Are All Right is all about family, and joining with Focus feels like a perfect marriage. I’m proud that the movie has now found such a special home.”
