If there were ever any doubts that Seattle director Lynn Shelton is on her way up in the film world, they’ve just been demolished. Shelton, whose local My Effortless Brilliance inked a nice deal with the Independent Film Channel, just one-upped herself by reportedly getting offered something in the six-figure range for her latest effort at the Sundance Film Festival this last weekend.

Humpday charmed Magnolia Pictures at the celebrated Utah fest and, Variety reports, will receive a theatrical release in August. The fact that the film is about a couple of heterosexual guys who do the nasty with each other for the sake of art was apparently too difficult to resist.

I haven’t seen the film but, you know, sounds like progress to me.
