IndieWire Talks about ''Welcome To The Rileys'' Movie

IndieWire Talks about ''Welcome To The Rileys'' Movie


Welcome To The Rileys (November 5; Samuel Goldwyn)

What’s The Deal? Directed by Jake Scott (Ridley’s son), “Rileys” follows a couple (James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo) whose relationship has been deteriorating ever since their daughter’s untimely death. Enter a scrappy underage prostitute played by Kristen Stewart.

Who’s Already Seen It? 9 critics gave it an average of B on the film’s criticWIRE page.

Why is it a “Must See”? The film debuted to very warm notices at the Sundance Film Festival, particularly for Stewart’s performance. Audiences haven’t recently given her a chance outside the “Twilight” series (see “Adventureland” and “The Runaways”), but perhaps this film can change that. If Samuel Goldwyn (who picked up the film from Apparition after they all-but-folded) plays their cards right, it could even give her some Oscar buzz.
