I had the privilege of speaking with writer/director JT Mollner as well as director of photography Giovanni Ribisi about the film. Given the very “don’t talk about the spoilers” nature of this talk, I was shocked at how they were able to skirt specifics. We were able to talk about some of the films that inspired Strange Darling, as well as the homework they gave the actors to help them get into their roles. This was an enlightening discussion as they clearly had a very creatively fulfilling experience from start to finish (not often a guarantee when making a movie). Thankfully we avoid all spoilers in the interview, so you’ll still be able to go in completely fresh.
Strange Darling plot: In Strange Darling, nothing is what it seems when a twisted one-night stand spirals into a serial killer’s vicious murder spree. Written and directed by JT Mollner (Outlaws & Angels), Strange Darling stars Willa Fitzgerald (The Goldfinch, Reacher), Kyle Gallner (Smile, Dinner in America), Ed Begley Jr. (Better Call Saul, A Mighty Wind), and Barbara Hershey (Black Swan, Insidious).
