ACOLADES ROLLING IN FOR "THE MASTER": The film came out 9/14/12 and already set records for "single day record for an art house" and "...setting the record for highest average live-action film.." The rave reviews coming in the first week even mention the film as a good contender for an Academy Award nomination and over th past few months, prior to release, the movie has already won the Silver Lion for best director (Paul THoms Anderson) and the Volpi Cup for best actor, (both Joachim Phoenix and Phillip Seymour Hoffman)at the 69th International Venice Film Festival. The film was originally awarded Golden Lion prize for Best Film but removed due to new rules against winning both best film acting & directing as well.
