Fri Jan 18, 2008 12:58am EST

NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - IFC Films has acquired North American rights to the crime dramas "How to Rob a Bank," starring Nick Stahl and Erika Christensen, and "Anamorph," starring Willem Dafoe and Scott Speedman.

Film

In "Bank," a bored teller (Christensen) and her slacker customer (Stahl) get caught in the middle of a bank heist and are forced to arbitrate between crooks and cops. British rocker Gavin Rossdale is also in the cast. It opens on February 6.

"Anamorph," a November release, stars Dafoe and Speedman as detectives tracking a killer who re-creates the perspective-distorting painting technique "anamorphosis" in a bizarre series of murders.
