Julianne Moore is a disco-dancing divorcée who finds love in the amusing new trailer for “Gloria Bell,” A24’s upcoming romance drama.

“When the world blows up, I hope I go down dancing,” Moore’s titular role says in the trailer. It is at the club where she meets Arnold, played by Turturro, and not long after, things got complicated.

“Gloria Bell” is a remake of director Sebastián Lelio’s own Chilean-Spanish dramady “Gloria.” Chilean actress Paulina García won the Silver Bear for Best Actress for that film at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2013. Lelio himself recently won an academy award for best foreign language film in “A Fantastic Woman.”

Written by Lelio, “Gloria Bell” premiered a few months ago on September 7 at the Toronto International Film Festival and has since received strong reviews.

Fearing a talented cast including Michael Cera, Caren Pistorius, Brad Garrett, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Rita Wilson, Sean Astin and Holland Taylor, the film is set for release on on March 8, 2019.

Here’s the film’s official synopsis:

Gloria (Julianne Moore) is a free-spirited divorcée who spends her days at a straight-laced office job and her nights on the dance floor, joyfully letting loose at clubs around Los Angeles. After meeting Arnold (John Turturro) on a night out, she finds herself thrust into an unexpected new romance, filled with both the joys of budding love and the complications of dating, identity, and family.

From Academy Award-winning director Sebastián Lelio (A Fantastic Woman, Disobedience) comes a sophisticated romantic comedy that shows love can strike at any time, relationships are never simple, and nothing can get you down as long as you keep dancing.

The film is set for release in theaters and on digital platforms on November 2, 2018.

“Holness makes his debut behind the camera in expertly clammy style.”
– Financial Times

Written and directed by Matthew Holness from producers James Harris, Mark Lane, Wayne Marc Godfrey, Robert Jones, the film stars Sean Harris and Alun Armstrong

Here’s the film’s synopsis:

A disgraced children’s puppeteer (Sean Harris, Mission: Impossible – Fallout) returns to his dilapidated childhood home and lecherous stepfather (Alun Armstrong), intent on destroying ‘Possum’, a hideously malformed spider-puppet he carries with him in a brown leather case. His mind flooded with painful half-memories and nightmarish visions, he soon finds himself embroiled in a local investigation for a missing boy, progressively unsure of what’s real and what’s not. All the while Possum seems to mock his suffering at every turn.

A hallucinatory venture into a truly damaged psyche, Matthew Holness’ (Garth Merenghi’s Darkplace) POSSUM is a twisted trip of terror where both nothing and everything is exactly as it seems.
