First Trailer for ‘Ain’t Them Bodies Saints’ Starring Rooney Mara, Casey Affleck, & Ben Foster
A beautiful first trailer for David Lowery’s crime drama Aint Them Bodies Saints starring Rooney Mara, Casey Affleck, & Ben Foster has been released. The film centers on an outlaw who escapes from prison and sets out across the Texas hills to reunite with his wife and the daughter he has never met. It looks like a gorgeously-shot, compelling slow-burner with great performances by the entire cast. Ain’t Them Bodies Saints was incredibly well-received at both Sundance and Cannes and I’m very to eager to see this one when it opens August 16.
Set against the backdrop of 1970′s Texas Hill Country, AIN’T THEM BODIES SAINTS is a romantic American story that follows three characters on various sides of the law – outlaw Bob Muldoon (Casey Affleck), his wife Ruth Guthrie (Rooney Mara), and a local sheriff named Patrick Wheeler (Ben Foster), who gets caught in their crosshairs. The film, which is the second feature from writer-director David Lowery, was developed at the Sundance Institute’s Writing and Producing Labs and also stars Nate Parker and Keith Carradine. The film received the U.S. Dramatic Cinematography Award at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival.
