2011 Sundance Predictions: Jeff Nichols’ Untitled Psychological Drama

Date:

#47. Jeff Nichols’ Untitled Psychological Drama

Shotgun Stories was one of the best discoveries in American Independent film in 2007 and ironically, it had it’s world premiere not at Sundance, but a couple of weeks later in Berlin. Jeff Nichols isn’t likely going to be “overlooked” a second time out if he decides to submit his untitled psychological drama sophomore feature formerly going by the title of “Shelter“.

Probably working with not that much of a bigger budget, but an better known working set of players, this was filmed in small town Ohio, and sees the filmmaker reunite with Michael Shannon and thesps Katy Mixon, Shea Whigham, Kathy Baker, Ray McKinnon and Jessica Chastain. Here’s a local news report on “Hollywood” staking out a town.

* Producers: Tyler Davidson and Sophia Lin
