Wildcat - Official Trailer - Oscilloscope Laboratories HD

Directed and co-written by four-time Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke, WILDCAT invites the audience to weave in and out of celebrated Southern Gothic writer Flannery O’Connor's mind as she ponders the great questions of her writing: Can scandalous art still serve God? Does suffering precede all greatness? Can illness be a blessing? In 1950, Flannery (Maya Hawke) visits her mother Regina (Laura Linney) in Georgia when she is diagnosed with lupus at twenty-four years old. Struggling with the same disease that took her father’s life when she was a child and desperate to make her mark as a great writer, this crisis pitches her imagination into a feverish exploration of belief. As she dives deeper into her craft, the lines between reality, imagination, and faith begin to blur, allowing Flannery to ultimately come to peace with her situation and heal a strained relationship with her mother.

Oscilloscope has been on a roll this year with the recent release of "Sometimes I Think About Dying" (which has Daisy Ridley in it by the way, which I recommend) and now we have "WILDCAT" releasing soon. The trailer for WILDCAT looks Fantastic and i like the performances from the cast (Maya Hawke, Philip Ettinger, Rafael Casal,  Cooper Hoffman,  Steve Zahn,  Vincent D’Onofrio, Alessandro Nivola, Christine Dye, Willa Fitzgerald, Levon Hawke & Liam Neeson) that are in the trailer. Ethan Hawke is the writer ( Shelby Gaines is also the writer too) and director of the Flannery O'Connor Biopic. I hope we see Oscilloscope continue to pick up more independent titles with mainstream actors or well known actors in it; for theatrical release.

Maya, Ethan, Vincent D'Onofrio... Great Story!Flannery O'Connor was a gem!

[mosierwerks]

I can’t wait to see this. My grandpas old car is in this movie. He has passed from this realm many years ago but I know he had a hand in getting his old car in this movie.

O'Connor is my go-to when I feel excessively happy, joyful, or hopeful.

Or would be, if that ever happened.

[rurushaw]

my son is in this movie..He's in the trailer 3 times..proud dad right here

[BernadetteLamb]

Everything about this trailer is stunning. O’Connor’s Catholic faith permeated each and every aspect of her life, from writing deeply convicting stories to carrying the cross of lupus…she is indeed a mystery of a person, and that’s why I love her.

[jchannell]

Her incredibly vivid description of a Peacock always amazed me. So, seeing the Peacock's tail in the trailer gave me the chills.

[lovepet]

This is THE BEST movie I've seen coming up.
Especially as an English Literature graduate.

[pikselolan]

incredibly excited to see cooper hoffman in this, literally cant wait

I hope they do her justice. I do not believe there was a better short story writer in the last 100 years and there have been some greats—there are equals but none better in the modern age in my opinion. My first journey into the World she created was almost 50 years ago with A Good Man Is Hard To Find—it was a life changing event which fits perfectly into the core of her work. At the heart of all the pieces I have read is her Christian belief that the rejection or acceptance of grace is the fundamental question of a human life. She was able to place this reoccurring theme in brilliant stories made as perfect as diamonds filled with black comedy and satire. If there are more subversive writers, I don’t know them. Plus, it came in the most unlikely of packages—a frail spinster with a thick southern accent who lived a quiet life raising her peacocks. If this film gets one person to read her stories, I applaud the effort. Don’t let the strong Catholic themes throw you off. The most unbelieving of atheists or agnostics can love her work i.e. no less an auteur than John Huston turned her novel Wise Blood into a movie.

Ethan is really hitting his stride...his work in "First Reformed" was stellar...he's making great choices and we're all benefitting from it.

Looking forward to this film and to see Maya...given her parents, I doubt the apple will fall far from the tree with regard to acting skills.

[korifraziermorgan]

Absolutely beautiful. Can't wait!!!

[dighead]

Beautiful trailer. Love this company! This was shot in my home state and can’t wait to watch it.

[danielyoung]

I saw the movie yesterday and it was everything l had hoped it would be. I am a writer in Oregon and have been a devoted O’Connor fan for over 30 years. I offer you folks my respect for your grasp on things and your approach to her story. My thanks as well.

[tycooper]

This is a work of art. The scope was a great choice. The fall off is classic anamorphic and the distortion of the seats in the church when she was sitting was great. Wow!!! Hawks has one, both of the Hawkes.i want to see it

[palomanevada]

1:36 - I wonder how awkward everyone on the set felt during the filming of this scene))

[hearteater]

Did I just see Liam Neeson?? He's not fighting or being chased?? I'm speechless!!

[RandyAnderson-rf]

I think I could name every story referenced in this trailer. My favorite author I've read her surpassing material over and over.

[PlaidxProductions]

I so hope this gets a physical release on Blu-ray.

[justynbell]

Ethan Hawke is one of the few famous celebs who has evolved into something really great. Good to see him transition into directing and on top of that he seems like genuinely down to earth guy who just wants to make great art. Much respect!
