16-05-2012

 

Sony Pictures Classics has picked up the North American rights to Academy Award®-winning director Susanne Bier´s latest film, LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED.

The deal was negotiated by CAA on behalf of Scandinavian sales company TrustNordisk.

LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED stars Pierce Brosnan, Trine Dyrholm and Paprika Steen and is the next
film after Bier´s Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award®-winner IN A BETTER WORLD, also released
by Sony Pictures Classics.

LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED is a romantic comedy, set in Sorrento, Italy. It´s a story about a group of
people all seeking love, about passion and happiness, about jealousy and loneliness. First and
foremost, it´s a story about having the courage to change your life - even when you think it´s too
late.

“Susanne Bier's latest screenplay is intelligent, brave and so much fun. Audiences will really embrace this film. It is great to have Susanne, Sisse, Peter, Rikke and everyone at TrustNordisk back in the Sony Classics family where they belong,” says Sony Pictures Classics.

 

Rikke Ennis, CEO at TrustNordisk adds:
“It makes so much sense that Susanne Biers new film is with Sony Pictures Classics. They did a
tremendous job on IN A BETTER WORLD and we are looking very much forward to the reaction
of the American audience on LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED”.
