We have the trailer for Take Shelter, starring Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain, which took home the top honor at the famed Cannes Film Festival Thursday, winning the Grand Prize in the Critic’s Week Competition!
The film is being billed as a “psychological thriller” and was notably the only American submission to the competition.
Give the trailer a try, and you will not be disappointed.
Despite being a thriller, the movie’s synopsis paints it much like a stereotypical disaster film, stating that the film is about “a man attempting to protect his family from an impending natural disaster.”
The exact nature of the disaster hasn’t been disclosed: whether it is an earthquake, tornado, tsunami, hurricane or otherwise remains to be seen.
"Curtis LaForche (Michael Shannon) lives in a small town in Ohio with his wife, Samantha (Jessica Chastain) and daughter, Hannah, a six-year-old deaf girl. When Curtis begins to have terrifying dreams, he keeps the visions to himself, channeling his anxiety into obsessively building a storm shelter in his backyard. His seemingly inexplicable behavior concerns and confounds those closest to him, but the resulting strain on his marriage and tension within his community can't compare with Curtis's privately held fear of what his dreams may truly signify."
