One of the films I was most looking forward to at Sundance this year was Azazel Jacobs‘ coming-of-age comedy/drama Terri. While it has a few great scenes, I was underwhelmed with the dry tone. It was light on satisfying comedy and drama, when I expected at least one to show through. Talking with a few others, the reaction seemed to be divisive and I encourage you to check it out for yourself. We now have the first trailer for the film starring Jacob Wysocki, John C. Reilly, Creed Bratton, Olivia Crocicchia, and Bridger Zadina. See it below via Apple and check out our Sundance video review here.
Synopsis:
A hit at the Sundance 2011 Film Festival, TERRI is a moving and often funny film about the relationship between Terri (Jacob Wysocki), an oversized teen misfit, and the garrulous but well-meaning vice principal (John C. Reilly) who takes an interest in him. TERRI was produced by the team behind BLUE VALENTINE and HALF NELSON, and directed by Azazel Jacobs (MOMMA’S MAN).
Terri hits theaters July 1st, 2011.
