#52. Safety Not Guaranteed – Colin Trevorrow
An ad that was popularized by Jay Leno’s hedlines segment might just be the winning ticket that Sundance is looking for in its Premieres category. What Safety Not Guaranteed has going for it is a filmmaker making his first fiction feature debut in Colin Trevorrow, lensing from Benjamin Kasulke who unloaded plenty of items in Park City last year and it has a cast comprised of Kristen Bell, Aubrey Plaza, Jake M. Johnson, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Sundance regulars Mark Duplass and Lynn Shelton.
Gist: Two magazine employees head out on an assignment to interview a guy (Duplass) who placed a classified ad seeking a companion for time travel. Things get complicated when she finds herself falling for him and even more confused as to whether or not he’s actually trying to build a time machine.
Producers: Trevorrow, Derek Connolly, Duplass Bros., Stephanie Langhoff, Peter Saraf and Marc Turtletaub
