Heads or Tails Trailer: John C. Reilly Portrays Buffalo Bill in the Cannes-Selected Film by Alessio Rigo de Righi and Matteo Zoppis

      After their captivating film The Tale of King Crab, directors Alessio Rigo de Righi and Matteo Zoppis have returned, this time featuring a major star. Heads or Tails stars John C. Reilly as Buffalo Bill and also includes Nadia Tereszkiewicz, Alessandro Borghi, Peter Lanzani, Mirko Artuso, Gabrielle Silli, and Gianni Garko. With a theatrical and digital release scheduled for the Cannes selection starting April 10 from Samuel Goldwyn Films, the new U.S. trailer has been released.

      Here’s the synopsis: “Following a fatal rodeo and a stolen kiss, Rosa and her cowboy lover escape across the Italian wilderness, chased by Buffalo Bill himself — on a quest for the legends he helped to create.”

      Rory O’Connor remarked in his review, “I can name few contemporary filmmakers more suited for the Western genre than Alessio Rigo de Righi and Matteo Zoppis. The pair behind The Tale of King Crab––a film I hold in great esteem––have carved out their unique space in modern Italian magical realism, somewhere near Alice Rohrwacher and Pietro Marcello, yet distinctly their own. Their latest work is titled Heads or Tails, and it continues the filmmakers’ ethereal campfire narratives. While it may not fully realize their Western potential, it will certainly suffice until that moment arrives.”
