DESCRIPTION

A Yale law student drawn back to his hometown grapples with family history, Appalachian values and the American dream.

From 2x Oscar, 2x Director’s Guild of America, and Venice Film Festival award winning director Ron Howard! Written by Vanessa Taylor, the Oscar and Golden Globe nominated screenwriter of The Shape Of Water! Starring 7x Oscar nominee Glenn Close, and 6x Oscar nominee Amy Adams!

4/4 Stars! “a sure bet for Oscar love, and deservedly so…is a beautifully constructed, unforgiving, heart-tugging family epic” (Chicago Sun-Times)

“an emotionally powerful and deeply moving film that features some of the very best performances that I have seen all year…Every single actor involved in this project brought their A-game…a simple and universal story with terrific performances.” (We Live Entertainment)

“The cast could not be better…It’s a tough role and Adams brilliantly brings it home, managing some barn-burning scenes but never going over the top. Close is just magnificent here, physically and emotionally ripping into Mamaw and delivering another unforgettable character in a career that has been full of them.” (Deadline)
