Published on June 21, 2018

Magnolia Pictures release Damsel in theatres tomorrow. Invited to the Berlin Film Festival shortly after its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, the Zellner Bros. were one the last ones out of the gate in ark City in terms of world preeming a film that was in post-production for a good amount of time. Another American indie role plume for Robert Pattinson, who wowed with his perf in the Safdie Bros.’ Good Time, in this funny bone take on the Western and perhaps female empowerment swagger, cast and crew were on hand (alongside starlet Butterscotch) for the World Premiere Screening at the Eccles.
