Most people will see Lost River because it’s Drive star Ryan Gosling’s directorial debut. The real reason is to see Ben Mendelsohn, who will become your new favorite actor if you watch Netflix’s “Bloodline”, a new series in which Mendelsohn puts on a performance of a lifetime.
Mendelsohn stars in Lost River, which opens April 10, 2015. And while we don’t know how big his role is, we do see him in this clip with “Mad Men’s” Christina Hendricks.
Lost River also stars Saoirse Ronan, Eva Mendes, Iain De Caestecker, Matt Smith and Barbara Steele.
“The film is set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city. Billy, a single mother of two, is swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while Bones, her eighteen-year-old son, discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the mystery, if their family is to survive.“
