Perfect Your ‘Do Revenge’ Halloween Costumes With These Pastel School Uniforms

Just as Halloween costumes based off of teen movie classics, such as “Clueless” and “Heathers,” were beginning to feel stale, Netflix’s “Do Revenge” came onto the scene with a entire film’s worth of campy, private school uniforms. This year, the pastel-hued pleated skirts and matching berets of Rosehill Country Day School make for a timely upgrade on Cher’s yellow plaid skirt that populate the streets every year. Drea and Eleanor are the new schoolgirl villains on the street…and all you need are some matching knee-high socks and loafers to tap into your own unhinged revenge plan this Hallowen. Below, check out everything you need for a “Do Revenge” Halloween costume: Courtesy of Amazon Although much of the costume design in “Do Revenge” is baked in fantasy, costume designer Alana Morshead did want the private school uniforms to have some semblance of reality. She told “W” that she based her designs off of South Korean school uniforms, which often include plaid skirts, berets and cardigans. She landed on pastel purples and mint greens in order to add a dream-like aura to match the rest of the film’s aesthetic.

Dark Comedy ‘My Neighbor Adolf,’ Starring Udo Kier, Secures Distribution for Australia, New Zealand (EXCLUSIVE)

Leo Barraclough International Features Editor Following the world premiere of “My Neighbor Adolf” on the Piazza Grande in Locarno, Beta Cinema has sold the dark comedy to Vendetta Films, which will bring the Udo Kier and David Hayman starrer to cinemas across Australia and New Zealand in the first quarter of next year.  Prior to Locarno, Beta Cinema sold the film to Hungary (Cinetel) and Switzerland (Praesens Film), while deals for North America (Cohen Media Group), U.K. and Ireland (Signature Entertainment), Italy (I Wonder), South Korea (Lumix Media) and Japan (Tohokushinsha Film) had been revealed before. The film is set in Colombia in 1960, just a few days after the Nazi criminal Adolf Eichmann was caught by Mossad agents in Argentina. Polsky, played by Hayman, is a lonely and grumpy old man, living in the remote Colombian countryside. He is a survivor of the Holocaust. He spends his days playing chess and tending his beloved rosebushes. One day, a mysterious old German man – played by Kier – moves in next door, and Polsky suspects that his new neighbor is… Adolf Hitler. Since nobody believes him, he embarks on a mission to uncover the evidence. In order to gather it, however, he will need to come closer to his neighbor than he would like – so close that the two could almost become friends.

Limelight Lights Up Toronto with Three Acquisition Titles and a Coachella Comedy in the Works [EXCLUSIVE]

Gregg Goldstein Most independent producer/financiers would be glad to have one hot title up for sale in Toronto. Limelight arrives this week with three: the Jane Fonda/Lily Tomlin-led comedy-drama “Moving On,” plus a pair of distinctive coming-of-age dramas, “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe” and “Wildflower.”   Now Limelight is developing the script for a comedy tentatively titled “Coachella,” written by Andy Siara (“Palm Springs”) and Joey Siara. The feature centers on teens who tell their parents they’re going on a church trip, but sneak off to the famed desert music festival instead. The Siara brothers are loosely drawing on their experiences playing the fest with their indie rock band, The Henry Clay People. (Andy, creator of Peacock’s “The Resort” and writer of an upcoming Apple Studios sci-fi comedy starring Andy Samberg, is repped by UTA, LBI Entertainment and Morris Yorn. Joey is repped by UTA and 3 Arts Entertainment.)
