'Bewitched' and 'Brokeback' Bumped; Miramax cleans out its closet

New release dates for two of my most anticipated films of 2005:

Bewitched: From July 8 to June 24
Positioning it opposite Herbie: Fully Loaded and Dukes of Hazzard. I'd expect with this announcement Dukes will change its release date again.

Brokeback Mountain: From October 7 to December 9
Focus only assures us that this is the studio's prime Oscar contender with this latest move. The studio also announced the release date for the Keira Knightley starring Pride and Prejudice: Sept. 23.

Also, Miramax will release 22 movies over the next 6 months. Contractual obligations require these films receive a theatrical release. Included in that cluster is the long delayed The Brothers Grimm (currently scheduled for July 29) as well as two of last year's potential Oscar contenders Proof (starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Jake Gyllenhaal and Anthony Hopkins) and Lasse Hallstrom's An Unfinished Life (starring Robert Redford, Jennifer Lopez and Morgan Freeman.)
