In front of Indieview-raved film In the lead role Frank Dillane as a self -destructing London Drifter, Roxy Cinema in central Manhattan will be worth Harris Dickinson Selects. Dickinson himself cured the film series to invite the audience “inside the visual and emotional landscape that helped shape his first feature film”, according to Roxy. Indieview shares more exclusive details below.
“Harris Dickinson has silently built a reputation as one of the most nuanced actors of his generation.”, Roxy also wrote about the actor “Triangle of Sadness” and “Beach Rats” actor. “With ‘Round‘Dickinson goes behind the camera and proves that he is as convincing a storyteller as he is an artist. The film follows a (young man) who navigates the life of society’s fringes in coastal Britain and balances hard realism with poetic introspection. It is a deep personal work – one that feels both intimate and cinematic ambitious. ”
From IndieWire’s review of “Urchin”: “Dickinson’s narrow and tetchy script is just for a pure hero’s journey to undermine it with the chaos of human behavior, and what may have been a nice three-act story about a moppet on mend sours to something much less digestible or educational.”
