Here’s a movie that continues to surprise and surpass expectations. We didn’t know what to make of “Deep Powder” when we first heard about it over a year ago, but our interest was properly piqued when we finally learned what exactly the Tribeca Film Festival premiere was about, and a now a trailer has raised our expectations even further.
Shiloh Fernandez and Haley Bennett star in the film about a couple of young kids from opposite sides of the tracks who fall in love. She’s a privileged member of a secret society who has ties to the South American drug trade, and now that he’s with her, she wants him to make the next drug smuggling trip with her. Though the initial synopsis made it sound like she’s using the less financially set boy for whatever reason, the trailer seems to indicate it’s a real love story between the two, and Fernandez and Bennett look perfectly natural together and have some great chemistry. It looks like they have bigger than usual high school relationship problems to worry about, but this looks like an intense and compelling ride.
“Deep Powder” will make its world premiere in the Viewpoints section at Tribeca next month, and has no distribution yet. The first trailer can be viewed below.
Zoe Kazan is used to playing dual roles, like when she juggled Screenwriter and Actor duties for last summer’s “Ruby Sparks”, but in her new film, she’ll be wearing two hats on screen only. In “The Pretty One”, she plays twins, and toady we have our first images from the film, which is premiering next month at the Tribeca Film Festival.
It was filmed all the way back in 2011, but indie drama “The English Teacher” will finally be released this May following a world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, and today we have the first official images of stars Julianne Moore, Michael Angarano, Greg Kinnear and Lily Collins in the film.
