Peace Arch Entertainment's "Delirious" Wins Fifth Film Festival Award


Award Further Validates Feature Film's Commercial Viability with Potentially Lucrative Worldwide Audiences


TORONTO-Peace Arch Entertainment Group Inc. (AMEX: PAE) (TSX: PAE), an innovative film and television entertainment company, announced today that its comedy "Delirious" won the Istanbul Film Festival's Special Jury Prize, The Silver Tulip Award.  "Delirious" will continue its global film festival schedule throughout 2007.  


After winning Best Director, Best Screenplay and the coveted SIGNIS Award at Spain's San Sebastian Film Festival, Best Director at the HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado, and a successful North American premiere at Sundance, the Tom DiCillo written and directed comedy will be featured at numerous film festivals worldwide.


"Delirious" will also be screened at the prestigious Sundance Institute/Brooklyn Academy of Music event in Brooklyn, NY on June 2 and June 10.  The film will be the Centerpiece Film at the 50th Annual San Francisco Film Festival on May 5, and at the Seattle Film Festival in June. Internationally, "Delirious" will be featured at the Kosmorama Film Festival in Norway, Karlovy Vary Film Festival in The Czech Republic, Avignon Film Festival in France, the Jerusalem Film Festival in Israel, Flanders Film Festival in Belgium, and Warsaw Film Festival in Poland.


"We feel very confident that 'Delirious' will continue to gain recognition on the international film festival circuit and grab the attention of possible acquisition and distribution partners," said John Flock, President of Peace Arch Entertainment.


"Delirious" stars Independent Spirit Award winner and Golden Globe Award and Emmy Award nominee Steve Buscemi ("Fargo" "Big Fish" "The Big Lebowski"), Young Hollywood Award and Hollywood Film Festival Best Actress Award winner Alison Lohman ("Matchstick Men" "Where The Truth Lies"), Michael Pitt ("Silk" "Last Days"), MTV Movie Award nominee Gina Gershon ("Bound" "Man About Town") and world renowned musician Elvis Costello playing himself.  The picture was produced by Independent Spirit Award winner Bob Salerno ("21 Grams" "All The Pretty Horses" "Chapter 27").


In "Delirious" Steve Buscemi plays a celebrity photographer who befriends a young homeless man (Michael Pitt) who aspires to be an actor.  Alison Lohman plays the starlet of the moment whose romantic interest in Pitt's character creates a wedge between the two unlikely friends.


Peace Arch Entertainment's expanding line up of feature films and long-form television programming includes one of the favorites at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, the drama "Chapter 27" starring Jared Leto and Lindsay Lohan.  Peace Arch also recently completed the romantic comedy "Watching The Detectives" starring Cillian Murphy and Lucy Liu, which will world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City in May, and began production on the film satire "The Deal" from the best-selling Peter Lefcourt novel, with a cast that includes William H. Macy, Meg Ryan, LL Cool J and Elliott Gould.  Peace Arch's highly anticipated ten-hour television event mini-series, "The Tudors" starring Jonathan Rhys-Myers, began airing in the U.S. on Showtime Networks in April.
