New Festival Trailer for Ry Russo-Young's Time Loop Film 'Before I Fall'

“It wasn’t a dream. It really happened. Again.” Open Road Films has also debuted a new Sundance trailer for the sci-fi film Before I Fall, from filmmaker Ry Russo-Young, which is premiering at the Sundance Film Festival next week. Adapted from Lauren Oliver’s novel of the same name, this time loop story involves a high school teenager – played by Zoey Deutch – who ends up dying at the end of the night, only to wake up and restart the same day, which gives her a chance to “question just how perfect her life really was.” The cast includes Halston Sage, Jennifer Beals, Logan Miller, G. Hannelius, Elena Kampouris, Diego Boneta and Alyssa Lynch. This still looks like a cheesy YA movie, but I’m hoping there’s something more to it, even just smart lessons to learn, or else why would it play at Sundance. Only time will tell. Take a look. ›››
