JoBlo’s own Chris Bumbray had the chance to watch Flora and Son – the latest music-themed film from director John Carney (Once, Begin Again, and Sing Street) – at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, and the result was a 9/10 review you can read at THIS LINK. The trailer for Flora & Son has been released online. This film will be available on Apple TV+ in one month, on September 29th. You can check it out in the embed above.Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt (
The Dark Knight Rises) and Eve Hewson (Bad Sisters), who happens to be the daughter of Bono from U2, Flora and Son was also scripted by Carney and centers on single mom Flora (Hewson), who is at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max. Flora is encouraged by the police to give Max a hobby. She tries to do this with an old acoustic. With the help of a washed-up L.A. musician, Jeff (Gordon-Levitt), Flora and Max discover the transformative power of music.Max is played by Oren Kinlan (
Sunlight). Jack Reynor (The Peripheral) is also in the cast, along with Amy Huberman (Threesome), Keith McErlean (Kin), Aislin McGuckin (Outlander), Margarita Murphy (One Night in Dublin), Marcella Plunkett (The Bachelor Weekend), Paul Reid (The Ritual), Kelly Thornton (Life’s a Breeze), Sophie Vavasseur (Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack), and Don Wycherley (I Kill Giants).Carney produced the film with Anthony Bregman, Peter Cron, Rebecca O’Flanagan, and Robert Walpole. Alison Cohen, Cathleen Dore, and Milan Popelka serve as executive producers.
Bumbray said, “
One really has to give Carney a lot of credit, as he typically stays in one genre (the music-driven romance/comedy), but he does so brilliantly. He makes films like no one else, and his films are like gifts. Flora and Son is no exception.“I haven’t gotten around to watch
Begin Again yet, but I really enjoyed Once and Sing Street, so I’m definitely interested in watching both Begin Again and Flora and Son.What did you think of the trailer for
