First Reactions to Sundance 2018 Movies2 of 16
I Think We’re Alone Now (U.S. Dramatic Competition)
About: Del (Peter Dinklage) is the last man on Earth, and he couldn’t be happier. After the human race suddenly drops dead, Del is content to clean up his town and live a quiet life. But when a young woman (Elle Fanning) crashes his peaceful existence, things can never be quite the same again.
Buzz: The film is directed by Reed Morano, who won an Emmy for directing “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Like that drama series, the movie focuses on how the world operates in the wake of a catastrophic shift. “Game of Thrones” star Dinklage carries the film with understated strength, and Fanning completes the two-hander with misfit grace. Despite the number of post-apocalyptic stories on screen right now, Sundance audiences are predicting that the star power and high concept will see this spread far beyond Park City.
