This year’s Tribeca Film Festival will see the debut of Lance Edmands’ BLUEBIRD that stars John Slattery, Amy Morton, Adam Driver, and Margo Martindale. Edmands has previously worked on a few smaller, projects has specific vast experience comes from working on the award-winning The Wire.
Mad Men‘s John Slattery takes one of the lead roles as a lumber worker Richard who’s about to lose his job at a dying mill, an industry that once ruled the area. His wife, Lesley, is portrayed by Amy Morton, a school bus diver who makes a lethal mistake and changes the world around her, the life of their teenage daughter (Emily Meade), plus Crystal (Margo Martindale) and Marla (Louisa Krause). There’s also a part for Adam Driver of Girls fame, he takes on the role of a distraction for a troubled young woman, we think he’s done that before…
BLUEBIRD is set in the north of Maine in the US and described as a multi-story drama that ties together tragedy and perseverance, I think I know this kind of story but these films are all about performance and so I’m very interested to see what Edmands has created. You can check out behind-the-scenes shots on their Facebook page over here and in the meantime, here’s that poster:
BLUEBIRD will premiere tomorrow at the Tribeca Film Festival, and we’ll keep you up-to-date with further updates!
