First Official Trailer for Bart Layton's Sundance Film 'American Animals'

“You’re in, or you’re out.” The Orchard has debuted an official trailer for the indie drama-documentary mix titled American Animals, which first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this year to quite a bit of acclaim. American Animals is the next film from Bart Layton, more of a feature than a doc, but still a hybrid of both, similar to his last film The Imposter. Based on a true story, it stars Evan Peters, Barry Keoghan, Blake Jenner, and Jared Abrahamson as four young friends who try to pull off a poorly-planned heist stealing expensive art books from a university library. Things don’t go as planned, and lessons are learned. The actual real people they’re playing also appear in the film in various scenes and interviews. The cast also features Ann Dowd and Udo Kier. It’s a totally original film worth seeing for its uniqueness. And this trailer is dope! I dig the music choice and how it’s all edited together – this is slick. Great way to sell the film. ›››
