Letterboxd and Black Bear Team Up to Bring 'Four Favorites' to Theaters

Independent distributor Black Bear is partnering with Letterboxd to bring the platform’s popular 'Four Favorites' format to audiences across the country.

This collaboration is tied to the release of 'Tuner', Black Bear’s upcoming thriller, starring Leo Woodhall. The Letterboxd-led initiative aims to create an in-theater experience to engage audiences and generate conversation about the film.

The 'Tuner' tour will stop at three festivals, kicking off with the opening night of the Miami Film Festival on April 9.

It will also include the Phoenix Film Festival on April 17 and the Philadelphia Film Society’s SpringFest on April 19. At each stop, attendees will have the opportunity to record their 'Four Favorites' at a co-branded installation, supported by on-site integrations, exclusive giveaways, and custom content social frames.

The partnership will continue through an extensive festival schedule, making appearances at the San Francisco International Film Festival, Opening Night at the Boulder Film Festival, and campus screenings at the University of Southern California, Chapman University, and the Savannah College of Art and Design.

Audiences will be encouraged to join Letterboxd and share their 'Tuner' review following the screenings.

'Tuner' is written by Daniel Roher and Robert Ramsey, and directed by Academy Award-winner Daniel Roher.

The film stars Leo Woodhall, alongside Havana Rose Liu, Dustin Hoffman, Tovah Feldshuh, Lior Raz, and Jean Reno.

Following film festival premieres at Telluride, Toronto, Sundance and BFI London, 'Tuner' opens May 22 in New York and Los Angeles in select theaters, and nationwide on May 29.
