American Honey Comes to Blu-ray Review
American Honey Available on Blu-ray and DVD 12/27
If you are looking for a movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat, then American Honey is where it’s at. I could not believe the drama, provocativeness, and impulsiveness of this movie. I loved every minute of it. If you are looking for some action and just want to escape the real world for a bit, American Honey has you covered.
I loved the plot of this story. If you think about it, we were all a little wild as teenagers. I feel as though American Honey is realistic and a movie you will not want to watch in front of your kids. Hang on tight because this movie will keep you on the edge of your seat. I want to re-watch this movie with my hubby too, I know he’ll love it.
SANTA MONICA, CA (November 1, 2016) – Revealing the provocative, rebellious and impulsive lifestyle of a band of millennial road warriors, 2016 Cannes Jury Prize Winner American Honey hits Blu-ray (plus Digital HD) and DVD on December 27 from Lionsgate. Theatrically released by A24, and written and directed by Academy Award®winner Andrea Arnold (Best Short Film, Live Action, Wasp, 2004), critics are calling American Honey “a raunchy, rapturous teenage dream” (Entertainment Weekly) and “a new classic” (The Atlantic). Rotten Tomatoes Certified Fresh, the steamy film takes a raw and intimate look at modern-day adolescence. American Honey stars newcomer and breakout star Sasha Lane in a “fierce” (The New York Times) performance alongside Riley Keough (Mad Max: Fury Road) and Shia LaBeouf (Transformers franchise).
An astonishing portrait of youth on the American fringe, American Honey is told through the eyes of a vivacious teenage rebel who joins a group of fellow misfits hustling and partying their way across the country. Bursting with electric, primal energy, American Honey is an immersive, exhilarating odyssey of heartbreaking beauty — a generation-defining film that celebrates the defiant resilience of youth in pursuit of the American Dream.
