​Samara Weaving is everywhere these days. She was in “Ready or Not 2,” which is still in theaters, and is also in “Carolina Caroline,” being released in the theaters on June 5 of this year. It’s still in the film festival circuit. The woman is on a hot streak. I’m sure it won’t be her last.
David Lowery, who wrote and directed this film, has a handful of movies that I can’t say enough good things about. His 2017 feature, “A Ghost Story,” a supernatural romance starring Casey Affleck and Rooney Mara is a personal favorite.​

​Used in the review of this movie will not be the word normal. Why? Because this is anything but that. Bob Odenkirk knows his audience well. That being the case, he and the writer of Nobody 1 & 2 wrote this screenplay knowing you’d enjoy what they came up with.
Watch the new trailer for David Lowery’s MOTHER MARY and listen to “My Mouth Is Lonely For You,” the mesmerizing second single performed by Anne Hathaway and written by FKA twigs.
The Mother Mary: Greatest Hits album arrives April 17 and features additional songs by Hathaway, Charli xcx, and Jack Antonoff.
