Never heard about this movie until about a half hour ago. It looks great.
Has anybody seen it?
Do Right, Be Right. :)
What did the trailer/synopsis seem like it was about?

Synopsis:
Quote:
Sam (Andrew Garfield) is a disenchanted 33-year-old who discovers a mysterious woman, Sarah (Riley Keough), frolicking in his apartment's swimming pool. When she vanishes, Sam embarks on a surreal quest across Los Angeles to decode the secret behind her disappearance, leading him into the murkiest depths of mystery, scandal and conspiracy in the City of Angels.
The bits I saw of it gave off a real David Lynch vibe to it. I was napping the other day while YouTube was on auto and woke up to RedLetterMedia reviewing it and they both loved it and said it was a shame that nobody's ever heard of it. I actually didn't watch much of their review because it looked so good to me that I didn't want it ruined.
I'm hoping it's as good as I think it might be. It's pretty rare these days that something piques my curiosity like this.
I think I'm going to see if it's on Netflix tonight. If I watch it, I'll let you know what I think.

Nope. Not on Netflix. Going to have to keep an eye out for it.

Looks as though it was originally shown at some film festivals in 2018, but wasn't going to get a proper release to the public until sometime around now in 2019.
But it also seems that there were some problems shopping it around and it didn't see much of a theatrical release? Maybe just a limited run in some theaters?
I'm also getting conflicting info about whether or not you can stream it yet. Some websites say it's not available anywhere to stream or to purchase on disc format yet, while others say that you can stream it on Amazon for $4.99 now.
I'm sure the Pirate Bay already has it. I'll give Hollywood some time to figure out how to properly monetize it and get it out to the public before I just go the easy route. If this film is what I believe it is going to be when I finally see it, I really don't like the idea of watching it for free. With all the mindless drek that Hollywood churns out with ridiculous budgets, it's a shame that a smart movie can't even get a proper release. Watching it for free is sending the wrong message to the powers that be.

The synopsis seemed vague, which was the same as what you posted. That's why I asked you.
Not sure if it is similar to Lady In The Box (2001), or maybe Lady In The Water (2006).
Lady In The Box did star Mark Sheppard, the year before he was in some little work called Firefly (twice), and he was also in Fastlane, which replaced Firefly in the Death Slot.
I'm not really bowled over by Elvis' granddaughter, but maybe she gets to shine in this one.

Well... I wouldn't be very excited if it was an M. Knight production. I don't think it's anything like Lady in the Water. Like I said, what little I allowed myself to see put off a pretty strong David Lynch vibe. Probably more like Mulholland Drive or the Lost Highway than anything M. Knight put out. Maybe a little Donnie Darko thrown in.
A critical review I did read for the movie said that it's something that you may have to watch 3 or 4 times to really "get it", and with a run time of well over 2 hours, that's just not the type of movie that's very marketable to the dumbed down audience of regular theater goers in 2019.

I realized that Riley Keough would be the step-sister or something of the Michael Jackson kids that the SJW Krotty guy assaulted.

This was a weird time for movies as all the Weiner Weintsien MeToo KevinSpacey stuff was slowly starting to break
Infinity War Avenegers everyone seen it.... all the other hype Black Panther, Pacific Rims, The Predators, Rampage etc
How to mess up the box office, Justice League, DC WArner kill a franchise
How to make a respectful cult movie many years later Blade Runner
How to end a genre and both at the same time add new life to it Logan

I didn't see any of them.
What is Rampage? Tell me they didn't make a movie of the 80's arcade game.
