This movie will tear your heart out.

Trailer

Synopsis:

In a forgotten but defiant bayou community cut off from the rest of the world by a sprawling levee, a six-year-old girl exists on the brink of orphanhood. Buoyed by her childish optimism and extraordinary imagination, she believes that the natural world is in balance with the universe until a fierce storm changes her reality. Desperate to repair the structure of her world in order to save her ailing father and sinking home, this tiny hero must learn to survive unstoppable catastrophes of epic proportions.

Beasts of the Southern Wild arrives on June 27th.

I was hoping for a Sasquatch movie with that title.

[~Kinggi~]

Eh, trailer didnt really do anything for me. Looks like it could be good, but i'd really have to see it to know.

[rikichi]

Looks like a snoozefest

[Expendable.]

So lame, come on GAF. I actually just thought it was pretty good when I first saw it (review here), but it has grown on me a lot since then. The score and imagery is just amazing.

Terrence Malick meets Terry Gilliam, indeed.

It's not about Sasqautch though.

There's creatures that are better than that here.

No Batman, no watch.

No Batman, no watch.

Sadly, I think that is the actual thoughts of a high percentage of GAF.

No Sasquatch, No Deal!

They are similar to sasquatches.

This looks like an early David Gordon Green movie. Will watch, though I'm always skeptical of the overpraised stuff that comes out of Sundance.

Came in expecting breasts, leaving disappointed. Reading comprehension FTL

Yeah, absolutely has that tone. This is nowhere near shit like the mediocre as fuck and highly praised/awarded Like Crazy. It's got some honest soul, heart and style. I promise.

Awesome Official Website (featuring DAT amazing score)

meh

[Galang]

I don't have interest in most movies, but I saw a teaser for this on TV and I really loved the atmosphere/vibe this movie puts out. Doesn't seem like it's getting any hype at all, but I'll probably enjoy it (hopefully) :)

[Expendable.]

First Clip

Still get chills, great scene.

[Junior Asparagus]

Well there's a decent chance I'll see this one, given the buzz it's getting. There's a free screening in my area too but I dunno if I'll be able to make it.

[Expendable.]

Featurette

God, the director is so damn young.

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Plainview is on the Fox payroll.

I wish! They just happen to release my favorite films of the year the last few years.

Think of me as DMC, but instead of Batman it's small films sadly less than 1% of GAF will ever see :(

[MisterNugNug]

Will watch, I'm a sucker for films with buzz from Sundance.

[BrLvgThrChmstry]

Ah, looks interesting I guess. I'd watch if I was bored and it was showing on IFC or something...

[Sir Hamish]

First Clip Still get chills, great scene.

That looks great. I'd love to see this but it's hard to catch stuff like this in Glasgow.

[Expendable.]

Another clip!

I'm interested. Will try and go see it when it comes out.

Edit: Just watched parts of the trailer. It looks pretty good.

[Imm0rt4l]

I hope this plays in my area.

[fat pat]

Saw this on Sunday at a screening in Chicago. Really sweet movie. It was well paced and beautifully shot with great performances from previously non-actors. It's this directors first movie and was shot all in southern Louisiana.

Go see it if you can

Got a chance to see this last night; really enjoyed it. The actress that played Hushpuppy (the lead), what an incredible job; especially from someone so young. The movie felt shorter than the advertised 90 mins; the cinematography was great (though the shaky cam took some getting used to). BEAST IT.

[bengraven]

I want to see this...

Despite the disappointment that it's an art film and not really about a loose aurochs terrorizing a Southern community... :P

[Expendable.]

[Count Dookkake]

Good film. Not perfect. Better than most shit, though.

[Cornballer]

I saw it tonight and really enjoyed it. I didn't know what to expect going in since I didn't see a trailer or read much about it. Great sense of place, good soundtrack, and very well acted. Check it out if you have the opportunity.

[Jackben]

I thought it was pretty good, and was impressed when I learned it came from a first time director. I felt like the end left some to be desired but that could juist be me wanting more. Storytelling bits were the best I think.

At the end I wasn't sure what to think, since throughout I thought the aurochs were metaphorical but then it looked like everyone else could see them as well. Felt out of place.

[Talon]

I am just loving this soundtrack. It's very hopeful.

[Expendable.]

Blu-ray on December 4th!

[BertramCooper]

Must...not...cry...damn it.

Great film.

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Was alright, not what I expected.

[Sweet Baby Roy]

It's playing in the same room as me right now. Paying attention is for suckers.

[Scullibundo]

It's playing in the same room as me right now. Paying attention is for suckers.

I would not make a good mod.

[meltingparappa]

Hooray for the bump!

I'll shed tears in an instant if I hear the final song on the soundtrack again.

[ViewtifulJC]

dat shaky cam tho
