As they’ve shown in films like "American Splendor" and "Cinema Verité," directors Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini have a knack for finding unique cultural corners and making them accessible. And they do it again with the upcoming "Ten Thousand Saints," and the first trailer has arrived.
Starring Ethan Hawke, Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Emile Hirsch and Emily Mortimer, and based on the novel by Eleanor Henderson, the story follows three teenagers who come together in the straight-edge punk scene of 1980s New York City. The picture arrives in theaters following its premiere in January at the Sundance Film Festival, where our Katie Walsh called it "an instant winner…heart-warming, funny, and real."
"Ten Thousand Saints" opens on August 14th. Check out the trailer below.
