Theater note: We encourage you to come see this film on the Big Screen! The film’s plot involves, and is framed by, a television show about a play where all the action takes place in a 1955 fictional desert town, all of which is really a movie. See it like movies are intended to be seen: at the movies! Not to mention the sets are a marvel of unique jewel box colors, full of “mischievous detail” with much of the perspective forced by the creation of extremely large miniatures alongside the candy-colored 1950s’ costumes within those specialized sets create an immersive experience meant to be seen on the big screen.
Coming soon: “Oppenheimer,” “Barbie,” “The Miracle Club” and “White Bird.”
