'Funeral' procession moving swiftly

Kimmel International has sealed a slew of territory deals across its slate, headlined by agreements for its Frank Oz-directed comedy "Death at a Funeral," the company said Saturday. Kimmel International president Mark Lindsay said "Death," which will be distributed in the U.S. by MGM, has sold to Concorde TeleMuenchen for Germany, Da Planeta in Spain and Mikado in Italy. Nu Metro has snapped up the movie for South Africa. Lindsay said he is in negotiations with "several interested U.K. distributors" for the movie, which stars Matthew Macfadyen, Peter Dinklage and Ewen Bremner in the tale of a dysfunctional British family in the wake of the death of the father.
