Poster - Tumbledown

When I see Rebecca Hall's name on a project I become interested. She's one of those actresses who have quietly hooked me in as a fan (in haunting roles like The Awakening, in indies like Please Give, and in more popular fare like The Town). I've been wanting to see her in more starring roles and from what I can tell this offbeat story seems to fit her talent quite well. The poster (and trailer) for Tumbledown looks very appealing. Matching her with the always funny Jason Sudeikis is a good pick. Sadly, I don't think this film will score lots of mainstream attention, but it's just the kind of film that gets me excited: Small town, charmingly quirky characters, and a soundtrack with a touch of folk (and most likely some other indie tunes). Sounds good to me...

"A young woman struggles to move on with her life after the death of her husband, an acclaimed folk singer, when a brash New York writer forces her to confront her loss and the ambiguous circumstances of his death."

In theaters February 5th.
