Celine Song shines with new romantic-drama ‘Materialists’
Celine Song made an incredible impact on audiences with her sensational debut feature Past Lives and now returns to the big screen with a beautifully rich story of the limits of human connection and a unique take on the classic love triangle troupe that is sure to get audiences sitting up and taking notice in Materialists.
Watch the brand new trailer for Celine Song’s Materialists below:
Here’s the official synopsis:
A young, ambitious New York City matchmaker (Dakota Johnson) finds herself torn between the perfect match (Pedro Pascal) and her imperfect ex (Chris Evans).
This first trailer for Materialists promises a richly textured character study of love and relationships as expert matchmaker Lucy (Johnson), begins to question her own talents for love, when she is suddenly in a clash of desire and heart after she runs into former flame John (Evans), even though she’s pursuing the hunky and seemingly perfect Randy (Pascal).
The film crackles with easy flirtations, and Song’s fantastic use of dialogue and setting build out the intrigue in the first trailer, while also allowing her to keep her cards close to the chest in relation to narrative and motivation, and there’s definitely a hearty dose of intrigue present within the picture itself.
Stylistically, Materialists looks like one of the slickest, grooviest watches of the year. There’s an easy-going, laid-back cool about the production, with a touch of effortless glamour that is sure to woo audiences and make this one a must-watch on the big screen.
