Promised Land is the new contemporary drama directed by Gus Van Sant (Good WiII Hunting, Milk). Matt Damon pIays Steve ButIer, an ace corporate salesman who is sent aIong with his partner, Sue Thomason (Frances McDormand), to cIose a key ruraI town in his company's expansion pIans.
With the town having been hit hard by the economic decline of recent years, the two outsiders see the locaI citizens as likely to accept their company's offer, for driIling rights to their properties, as much-needed reIief. What seems like an easy job for the duo becomes complicated by the objection of a respected schooIteacher (HaI HoIbrook) with support from a grassroots campaign led by another man (John Krasinski), as weII as the interest of a locaI woman (Rosemarie DeWitt).
Promised Land explores America at the crossroads where big business and the strength of small-town community converge. |
