OK Friends, for what it's worth, I ran across a site that states that the movie "Bright Star" is set for a release date of October 9, 2009. I copied the link if you are interested in seeing this:

Bright Star
release date: Friday October 9, 2009
genre: Drama
director: Jane Campion
studio: TVA Films
producer(s): Caroline Hewitt, Jan Chapman, Jane Campion
screenplay: Jane Campion
cast: Ben Whishaw, Abbie Cornish, Thomas Sangster, Paul Schneider, Kerry Fox, Samuel Roukin, Samuel BarnettI got this from tribute.ca
I am not sure if this is the US Release date or not - I assume it is from the site. Anyway, October 9th seems to be the day. But it will be limited release according to the tribute.ca links I traced.
Hope this helps. Now I won't be able to get October 9 out of my head
