Focus Features picked up The Place Beyond the Pines for distribution after it screened at TIFF. It will be scheduled for release sometime in 2013.
I know the film because its the one where Ryan Gosling is on a dirt bike with bleached white blond hair.
The film stars Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper, Eva Mendes, Ben Mendelsohn, Rose Byrne, Mahershalalhashbaz Ali, Dane DeHaan, Emory Cohen, and Ray Liotta. Derek Cianfrance, Ben Coccio, and Darius Marder wrote the screenplay and Derek Cianfrance directed the film.
“Luke (Ryan Gosling) is a professional motorcycle rider who turns to bank robberies in order to support his newborn son. When he crosses paths with Avery (Bradley Cooper), a rookie police officer, a violent confrontation changes both their lives. Years later, their two sons unknowingly collide with one another, thrusting them into a tense inter-generational feud. THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES is a rich dramatic thriller that traces the intersecting lives of fathers and sons, cops and robbers, heroes and villains.”
