Edm conglomerate SFX Entertainment has found itself the subject of ongoing scrutiny in light of its recent bankruptcy filing, and in the days that have passed, numerous details of the company’s unsavory business practices have come to light. Most recently, after its bankruptcy filing, a list of SFX’s outstanding debts has reached the public.
Digital Music News obtained the list, and narrowed it down to only the 40 largest amounts – all of which still come out to just shy of half a billion dollars. Among the more noteworthy individuals named is promoter Paolo Moreno, whom was just awarded an $11 million settlement after suing SFX Entertainment CEO Robert F.X. Sillerman for stealing the ideas which led to the company’s formation.
Many of the companies listed share direct ties to SFX – which would suggest a common interest in the company’s recovery. CrowdRX, for instance, was founded by SFX board...

It's sort of a bummer to me that the two films at the forefront of this year's Best Documentary Oscar race — Laura Poitros' "Citizenfour" and Steve James' "Life Itself," each of which I like just fine — can't really hold a candle to some of the very best films in contention, whether "The Overnighters" (my favorite), "Tales of the Grim Sleeper," "Virunga," etc. Alas, that's how it's shaping up. And that's just, like, my opinion, man. But I get it. We must protect whistleblowers and the spotlight of the Oscars is important for this kind of thing, yada, yada, yada. (Not that there isn't a ton of nuance in this situation to be chewed on no matter what side of the political line you fall on.) But... Anyway, Poitros' film won the International Documentary Association's Best Feature prize Friday night, out of a field of nominees that included the aforementioned "Grim...

You have to be pretty passionate to work at something for 14 years. Thomas G. Miller certainly was. "Limited Partnership," his new documentary, was big deal for him, and rightfully so. The powerful piece documents the life and times of Filipino-American Richard Adams and Australian Tony Sullivan, who were one of the first same-sex couples in the world granted a legal marriage. It premiered at this year's Los Angeles Film Festival on June 14. [Editor's Note: Indiewire reached out to filmmakers with films playing at the 20th La Film Festival (June 11-19) to ask them about how they shot their indie, and what advice they had for other filmmakers. We'll be posting their responses throughout the run of the festival. Go Here for the master list.] What was the most difficult shoot on your movie and how did you pull it off? The most difficult shoot in "Limited Partnership" was a marriage equality rally in downtown La in the rain. We had one primary camera shooting the stage that had...
