Intense Clip From Patrick Stewart’s Skinhead Film GREEN ROOM
A clip has been released for Blue Ruin director Jeremy Saulnier’s upcoming thriller called Green Room. I don’t know if you’ve seen Blue Ruin yet, but it was a great movie, and you should watch it on Netflix when you get a chance. Saulnier is a talented director, and this looks and sounds like a great follow-up film project.
The film stars Patrick Stewart as "the unflinching and industrial leader of a ferocious white supremacist fiefdom based in the Pacific Northwest." The story follows a group of down-on-their-luck punk rockers who “agree to a last-minute gig in a backwoods Oregon roadhouse only to find themselves caught in the crosshairs of a violent white-supremacist gang. After finishing their set in the no-name skinhead club, the band members stumble on a grisly murder scene and are targeted by a ruthless club owner and his henchmen, determined to eliminate all witnesses. Hopelessly outmanned and outgunned, the terrified musicians barricade themselves backstage to buy time for an escape attempt. As a heavily armed militia mounts a deadly assault, the survivors pull together in a last-ditch effort, surprising their opponents with unexpected ingenuity and courage.”
The film also stars a great cast that includes Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Alia Shawkat, Joe Cole, Callum Turner, Mark Webber, and Macon Blair. There’s no U.S. release date yet, but it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival last week, and it was met by several positive reviews. It seems like a movie that’s definitely worth checking out.
