‘Dirt Music': Kelly Macdonald and Garrett Hedlund Fight For Their Love in Tepid Drama [Trailer]

June 11, 2020 Jordan Ruimy

I’ll watch anything starring Kelly Macdonald, but “Dirt Music,” set for VOD release on July 17th, has been critically shamed ever since its subdued debut at TIFF last September. Check out that 13% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, that 33 on Metacritic or even the laughably bad poster, which makes the movie look more like a faith-based Christian drama than the down-and-dirty product the newly-released trailer hints at. “Down-and-dirty” won’t be enough to lift this drama up when it is released on the same day as Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet.” Yikes. “Dirt Music” stars Kelly Macdonald and Garrett Hedlund. The film is directed by Gregor Jordan, based on a script by Jack Thorne. The plot revolves around the “fervent attraction” between Georgie (Macdonald), a woman stuck in a loveless relationship, and Lu (Garrett Hedlund), a musician with a tragic past. The gist of it has to do with deeply-kept secrets from their past coming back to haunt them. The glossy trailer has a lot of lustful oozing.
