Dreamland
Director: Miles Joris-Peyrafitte (“As You Are,” “Valley of the Sasquatch”)
Cast: Margot Robbie, Travis Fimmel, Garrett Hedlund, Kerry Condon
Details: Margot Robbie does her best Bonnie Parker in this 1930s Dust Bowl-set tale which follows a seventeen-year-old boy on his quest to capture a fugitive bank robber and collect the bounty on her head in order to save his family farm from foreclosure. He beats out the FBI and the local police to find her, only to discover that she’s far deadlier than the authorities expected.
“Animal Kingdom” star Finn Cole plays the boy in the film which is helmed by 24-year-old wunderkind Miles Joris-Peyrafitte who was one of the youngest-ever filmmakers to get into Sundance last year and here is working from a Black List script by Nicolas Zwart.
