agentorange [Celluloid 05.18.10] movie news thriller



Wrecked is a little Canadian flick I've had my eyes on for well over a year. It was shot in British Columbia and is currenlty in post-production, but no matter how hard I tried, or who I begged, I just couldn't unearth any images or footage from the film. However, good 'ol /Film managed to take some snaps of some promotional stuff for the film at Cannes which gives us our first look at the film.

Synopsis:
A Man (Adrien Brody) awakens in a mangled car-wreck at the bottom of a steep cliff. He’s injured, his legs are trapped, and he has no memory of who he is or how he got there. His only company - a crackling radio broadcast of a violent bank robbery gone wrong and a corpse in the back seat with a wallet identifying him as one of the perpetrators. As the man ventures beyond the wreckage, he must rely on his primal instincts, using anything he can find in the surrounding wilderness to increase his chances of survival.Confronted with overwhelming obstacles, both real and imagined,the Man must discover his identity and face the consequences of what that might be.

Wrecked is directed by Michael Greenspan, written by Christopher Dodd and stars Adrien Brody, Caroline Dhavernas, Ryan Robbins, Adrian Holmes and Jacob Blair.

Check out two promo images after the break.

Saw at Cannes market. Nothing like Concrete Island. Don't accuse people of plagiarism on the basis of a synopsis.

I've heard some great things about this film, haven't seen much about it, but based on the buzz around it this is going to be a damn good film.

I googled the director, Michael Greenspan, and came across his website. Looks like he has done some good work in the past (short films) with lots of awards. I suggest taking a look.
