Billy Bob Thornton wrote, directed, and stars in ‘Jayne Mansfield’s Car,’ a new comedy-drama that opens on Friday, September 13., at AMC Grapeville Mills. It is also available to watch via various Video On Demand (V)D) platforms.
Official Synopsis: In what critics are calling his best work as writer/director since ‘Slingblade,’ Academy Awards winner Billy Bob Thornton stars – along with Oscar’s winner Robert Duvall, two-time Oscar nominee John Hurt and Golden Globe winner Kevin Bacon – in this story of fathers and sons, wars and peace, and the turbulent time that changed America forever. It’s 1969 in a small Alabama town, and the death of a quirky clan’s long-estranged wife and mother brings together two very different families for the funeral. But do the scars of the past hide differences that will tear them apart or expose truths that could lead to the most unexpected collisions of all? Robert Patrick (‘Walk the Line’), Ray Stevenson (“Dexter”), Katherine LaNasa (“Deception”) and Frances O’Connor (‘The Hunter’) co-star in the acclaimed comedy/drama that TwitchFilm calls “A perfect film for a lazy summer day with near-perfect performances across the board!”
