Sat, Aug 22 and Sun, Aug 23 at 2:30pm: Sneak Preview + Q&A with stars Dakota Fanning and Cory Michael Smith
Free-spirited Wendy (Dakota Fanning) is at a crossroads in her relationship with older divorced dad Jack (Jake Johnson, New Girl) that is only further complicated when an old flame (Cory Michael Smith, Sentimental Value) re-enters her life. Set in perpetually sunny summertime Anchorage and featuring a career-best performance by Fanning, THE SUN NEVER SETS is a funny and endearing return to form for mumblecore auteur Joe Swanberg.
Regular engagement begins Fri, Sep 4. Showtimes to be announced.
Official selection: SXSW
“Marks a confident return for Swanberg, bolstered by a stellar performance from Fanning and a thoughtful, often painful exploration of love, growth, and the realization that fulfillment doesn’t always come from another person.” - Film Inquiry
