Looking at them, I was struck with a reaction that had me saying, “Of course.” They’re intriguing and weird and hinting at an unusual darkness. And that doesn’t suprise me a bit because Gosling has that in him. Look no further than his band Dead Man’s Bones for that. Further, Lost River‘s cast includes Barbara Steele, which I had not known about until now. Christina Hendricks (Mad Men) stars in a film that “weaves elements of fantasy noir, and suspense into a modern day fairytale. Set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city, Billy, a single mother of two, is swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while her teenage son discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the mystery, if their family is to survive.”
Saoirse Ronan, Eva Mendes, Ben Mendohlson and Matt Smith also star. Thanks to The Film Stage for the pics!
