Synopsis

It’s summer on Sway Lake, the most glamorous lake in the Adironacks, former playground of the jazz-age New York aristocracy. Music collector Ollie Sway recruits his only friend, a rowdy Russian drifter, to help him steal a 78 record from his own family’s estate. Ollie believes that this mysterious peice of music— recorded at this grandparents' wedding by Cole Porter’s lover—was hidden from his by his father before his suicide. He believes possessing the record will change his life. The boys’ mission should be as easy as meeting a pretty girl on the water, but the arrival of the beguiling matriarch herself, Charlie Sway, changes everything. For Charlie has her own plans. And this song that hasn't been heard in half a century may possess the answer to the deepest riddles about love and death for whichever of these three lost souls will the be the first to find it.

Limited and VOD Releases: Starting to Love Awards Season

September 21st, 2018

Collette

It is not a particularly busy week for limited releases, as there are only nine films on the main list. However, several of them could do very well at the box office. Of these, I’m the most bullish about Colette and The Sisters Brothers, but there are two documentaries, Love, Gilda and Nothing Like a Dame, that could also open in the $10,000 club. All four could earn some Awards Season glory. More...
