Out of Blue — Official Trailer

added: Fri, Jan 25th '19

Patricia Clarkson is a homicide detective on a metaphysical journey to seek the truth in the trailer for "Out of Blue," a mind-bending murder-mystery drama that also stars Jacki Weaver, James Caan, Toby Jones, and Mamie Gummer.

Part whodunnit, part procedural cop thriller, and part dreamlike meditative drama, "Out of Blue" is based on the bestselling novel "Night Train" by Martin Amis, and it centers on a veteran New Orleans detective named Mike Hoolihan (played here by Clarkson) who is drawn into a mysterious conspiracy when investigating the suspicious death of a distinguished astrophysicist (played by Gummer).

British filmmaker Carol Morley, who previously made the Maisie Williams-starring school girl hysteria mystery-drama "The Falling," writes and directs "Out of Blue," which premiered at TIFF last year.

The film is scheduled to hit U.S. theaters and VOD on March 22nd. It will also open in U.K. cinemas on March 29th.

synopsis:
The hunt for a killer draws a detective into an even larger mystery: the nature of the universe itself. Mike Hoolihan (Patricia Clarkson) is an unconventional New Orleans cop investigating the murder of renowned astrophysicist Jennifer Rockwell (Mamie Gummer), a black hole expert found shot to death in her observatory. As Mike tumbles down the rabbit hole of the disturbing, labyrinthine case, she finds herself grappling with increasingly existential questions of quantum mechanics, parallel universes, and exploding stars -- cosmic secrets that may hold the key to unraveling the crime, while throwing into doubt her very understanding of reality. Awash in dreamlike, neo-noir atmosphere, this one-of-a-kind thriller is both a tantalizing whodunnit and a rich, metaphysical mind-bender.
