Check Out the New Poster for Sofia Coppola’s THE BEGUILED Starring Nicole Kidman and Colin Farrell

World-premiering at the 2017 Cannes International Film Festival, Focus Features will release THE BEGUILED in NY and LA June 23, 2017, expanding to more theaters on June 30, 2017

This looks good! The original 1971 version starred Clint Eastwood and was directed by Don Siegel, but it’s a very much a feminist story so it should be interesting to see it in the hands of women filmmakers.

Here’s the trailer:

THE BEGUILED is an atmospheric thriller from acclaimed writer/director Sofia Coppola. The story unfolds during the Civil War, at a Southern girls’ boarding school. Its sheltered young women take in an injured enemy soldier. As they provide refuge and tend to his wounds, the house is taken over with sexual tension and dangerous rivalries, and taboos are broken in an unexpected turn of events. It stars Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning, Oona Laurence, Angourie Rice, Addison Riecke, and Emma Howard.
