Joel Edgerton and Felicity Jones Pull at the Heartstrings in the Deeply Moving ‘Train Dreams’
This lyrical film based on Denis Johnson’s novella spans decades in the life of Robert Grainier (Joel Edgerton), a logger in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest in the early 1900s. He marries and starts a family with Gladys (Felicity Jones).
But while he’s away at work, a wildfire destroys their home and Gladys and the baby are missing, a profound loss that haunts him. Edgerton’s soulful performance, the mesmerizing story of a rapidly changing society and the spectacular scenery make this a must-see.
Train Dreams | In theaters Friday, Nov. 7 PG-13
