Mann’s “Rat Fink” Set for U.S. Release
by indieWIRE (July 26, 2006)
Abramorama has acquired Ron Mann‘s animated biopic “Tales of the Rat Fink,” about Hot Rod Legend Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, creator of the anti-Mickey Mouse icon, Rat Fink. The film, featuring the voices of John Goodman, Jay Leno, Ann-Margret, and Brian Wilson, among others, had its world premiere earlier this year at SXSW and includes classic archival footage of the golden age of hot rods and the surf rock soundtrack of The Sadies. According to the announcement, Catherine Tait of Duopoly brokered the distribution deal between Ron Mann’s Sphinx Productions and Abramorama, which released Mann’s previous movies, “Grass” and “Go Further.” “Tales of the Rat Fink” is set to screen in September at the Toronto International Film Festival, according to the announcement.
