Adams and Blunt in Sunshine Cleaning Trailer
This has “Sundance darling” written all over it. Quirky characters, weird job, dramatic and funny; it’s all here. If this was any other movie, I wouldn’t even bother with a look at the trailer but Sunshine Cleaning happens to feature two of my favourite young actresses.
This is the all around women’s film. Written by Megan Holley, directed by Christine Jeffs and starring Amy Adams and Emily Blunt in lead roles, it’s the story of two sisters in need of money. The duo discovers that there’s a whole lot of it to be made cleaning crime scenes and so Sunshine Cleaning is born.
Although the film had good buzz going into Sundance, it wasn’t picked up for distribution until late in the festival which, as Karina Longworth at Spout Blog speculates, may have something to do with the amount of gore in the film (which is certainly hinted at in the trailer).
I’m not impressed by this trailer and if this featured any other two actresses, I’d likely give it a pass but I can’t say no to Adams and Blunt together. Though Overture has released the trailer, no word yet on the distribution date.
Trailer is tucked under the seat!

The movie can end in a full on mud-wrestling match. Box Office Gold I tell ya. GOLD!

Oh and Sossamon has a tiny bit role in KISS KISS BANG BANG as “pink haired girl” - which is funny because I don’t think I recognized her there when I saw the film.

I love Amy Adams. But I also love Zooey Deschanel. My brain could never commit itself to anything. Especially when it comes to women.

You said it. And heaven help you if you want to see a movie on their birthday! But screw it, I’m going to see BLINDNESS.
