"If you could have anything, what would it be? What's your dream?" Lionsgate has debuted the official trailer for Peter Sollett's new film Freeheld, a moving drama starring Ellen Page and Julianne Moore as domestic partners. The story focuses on their struggle to keep a pension intact when Laurel Hester, played by Julianne Moore, is diagnosed with cancer. The supporting cast includes Steve Carell, Michael Shannon, Josh Charles and Luke Grimes. This has one of those very inspirational, hopeful, powerful messages of "change the world" at the end, complete with pop song. But it also looks really good, especially the two lead performances. Ellen Page looks to be at her best, and Moore is always at her best. #loveislove
Here's the first official trailer for Peter Sollett's Freeheld, originally from Buzzfeed:
New Jersey police lieutenant, Laurel Hester (Julianne Moore), and her registered domestic partner, Stacie Andree (Ellen Page), both battle to secure Hester's pension benefits when she is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Freeheld is directed by American filmmaker Peter Sollett, of the films Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Raising Victor Vargas and Five Feet High and Rising previously. The screenplay is written by Ron Nyswaner (Philadelphia). Summit/Lionsgate will release Freeheld in theaters starting on October 2nd this fall. This looks like one to keep an eye on.
