Title of Burton film changed for overseas
LOS ANGELES — Abraham Lincoln won't get top billing in some foreign countries when his vampire-hunting adventure hits the big screen this summer.
In Italy and Portugal, meanwhile, the title character is gone entirely. The film will be called "The Legend of the Vampire Hunter" and "Secret Diary of the Vampire Hunter," respectively, in those countries.
Hoping to make its adaptation of the bestselling book "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" more accessible to overseas moviegoers might not be familiar with America's 16th president, 20th Century Fox is calling its June release "President Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" in Taiwan and Thailand and simply "Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" in Hong Kong and South Korea, a spokesman for the studio confirmed.
In the rest of Europe and all of the Spanish-speaking world, the picture will carry a local language version of "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter."
It's not uncommon for movies to get new names in certain overseas markets, particularly when the original title contains references that have more resonance for Americans.
For "Abraham Lincoln," directed by Russian filmmaker Timur Bekmambetov, some at Fox are already concerned that the content itself — with a main character drawn from American history — will be less appealing than many other summer movies in certain overseas markets.

Filmmaker tries to keep Marley's music 'fresh'
ORLANDO, Fla. — Bob Marley remains, as his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame biography attests, "reggae's foremost practitioner and emissary." More than 30 years after his death at 36, his estate still earns millions from sales of his music — his "Legend" greatest hits disc has sold over 20 million copies, and counting — and the omnipresent T-shirt that bears his image.
"People love to listen to him at the beach, to hear 'Three Little Birds' or 'One Love' in parties," says filmmaker Kevin Macdonald ("The Last King of Scotland," "State of Play"). "Stir It Up' plays in

And that's what Macdonald, who did documentaries such as "Being Mick" before breaking out in narrative feature films with "The Last King of Scotland" and "State of Play", wanted to change.
teacher, talked to his widow and surviving children and his mistresses. He got band mate Bunny Wailer to talk frankly about the man's genius and his faults.
"Marley" is Macdonald's critically acclaimed new documentary about the jamaican reggae icon
The filmmaker was going for something "more rounded," filling his film with blunt assessments of Marley's personal shortcomings and uncomfortable chats with a record company exec who signed him at a bargain-basement price, causing Peter Tosh and Bunny to bail out of The Wailers.
"I didn't want to talk to the people you expect to see in a Bob Marley documentary — Bono, Clapton, Mick Jagger, all those people who might go 'Oh, he was so wonderful.'"
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
INDIO, Calif. — Tens of thousands of visitors will descend upon the desert region beginning Friday for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
Fans and bands may need an extra stamina boost this year. Coachella, one of the biggest events for pop fans, the music industry and the Mojave Desert, is expanding for the first time from one weekend to two and will feature 143 bands. By cloning itself into twin festivals, with identical lineups, spread over consecutive three-day weekends, it will easily rank as the highest-grossing festival in the world this year, according to Billboard magazine.
Macdonald found Marley's first
The expansion of the festival is a boon for economically challenged Indio, a city of 76,000 where the median income is just above $36,000 a year, according to U.S. Census Bureau figures. It

will more than double in population with the addition of 80,000 or more Coachella guests each weekend, and those two waves of visitors will bring money to spend. The influx of visitors also means sold-out hotels, packed cafes and a run on Smartwater in more affluent, surrounding areas such as the resort towns of Indian Wells and La Quinta.
Last year's one-weekend event grossed $25 million in tickets. This year that figure is expected to jump to the $50 million mark by the time the event closes on April 22. Three-day passes cost $285 sans service fees, and all 150,000 passes were gone within three hours of the lineup being announced in January.
"There were enough buyers in queue to buy online that we probably could have added another two Coachella weekends," said Randy Phillips, president of AEG Live.
