New 70s-Inspired Trailer for 'Relay' Thriller w/ Riz Ahmed & Lily James

"He's the man you call when there's nowhere left to turn... A ghost in the static, untraceable. His identity is a secret he'll do anything to protect." Bleecker Street has debuted a clever 1970s-esque trailer for Relay, a paranoia thriller from filmmaker David Mackenzie (of Perfect Sense, Starred Up, Hell or High Water). This premiered at last year's Toronto Film Festival and opens in US theaters starting next week (view the official trailer) - catch it showing on the big screen soon. A world-class "fixer" is enlisted by an alluring, mysterious whistleblower in this "twisty, confident homage to classic paranoid thrillers." A broker of lucrative payoffs between corrupt corporations and the individuals who threaten them breaks his own rules when a new client seeks his protection to stay alive. TIFF says the film is "riddled with ingenious feats of misdirection, novel set pieces, and jaw-dropping twists that would have made Hitchcock proud." Starring Riz Ahmed & Lily James, with Sam Worthington, Willa Fitzgerald, Matthew Maher, Mike Holt, Eisa Davis. This is the best way to sell this film – I'm way more intrigued to watch now than after the first trailer. Check it out. // Continue Reading ›
