Shotgun Stories

Jeff Nichols Directorial Debut(whose 2011 film Take Shelter looks tight- click for the trailer if you're a bitch). Starring Michael Shannon (whose in Boardwalk Empire, and hella other shit)
I'm gunna say this once on here... I FUCKIN HATE TRAILERS. They fuck you up. They create obnoxious expectations, give away crucial moments and lines and often set a tone that the movie doesn't hold.  That being said... a lot of people don't want to risk investing themselves in something for two hours without doing a little preliminary research.  I understand that... but watching the trailer is not the only way. Look at some photographs and read a 1 sentence synopsis... and if you're getting a recommendation from a Plug God--- HAVE FAITH.  "drama film about a feud between two sets of half-brothers following the death of their father in rural Arkansas"
Here's the trailer for all you fuckin civilians that don't know what's good for you...
