THOROUGHBREDS

MARCH 30 – APRIL 5
THOROUGHBREDS

Childhood friends Lily (Anya Taylor-Joy) and Amanda (Olivia Cooke) reconnect in suburban Connecticut after years of growing apart. Lily has turned into a polished, upper-class teenager, with a fancy boarding school on her transcript and a coveted internship on her resume; Amanda has developed a sharp wit and her own particular attitude, but all in the process of becoming a social outcast. Though they initially seem completely at odds, the pair bond over Lily’s contempt for her oppressive stepfather, Mark, and as their friendship grows, they begin to bring out one another’s most destructive tendencies. Their ambitions lead them to hire a local hustler, Tim (Anton Yelchin), and take matters into their own hands to set their lives straight.
Dir: Cory Finley / 2017 / English / 92 min

“’Thoroughbreds’ doesn’t look or sound anything like other teen-centric movies, but this is hardly a surface-only character study. Rather, the high-gloss, baroque world of Lily’s house serves as an elaborate mask for their true natures, and over the course of a tense, twisted 90 minutes, Finley worms deep into both Amanda’s and Lily’s psyches.” – Peter Debruge, Variety

“The tone of ‘Thoroughbreds’ grows significantly darker as it creeps toward its climax; the house grows more ominous and Finley’s technical precision becomes even sharper. He’ll use rack focus to snap us to attention, or alternate between sound effects and silence to suggest violence in a way that’s far more disturbing than actually showing it to us.” – Christy Lemire, RogerEbert.com
