Moriarty’s character is ready to split - only for another couple (Dina Shibabi and Ryan Corr) to arrive from the big city and send all four of them down a suffocating spiral of jealousy, frayed relationships, and more. The Boys‘ Erin Moriarty and Suicide Squad‘s Jai Courtney star in this barn-burner of a desert thriller, as a dysfunctional couple breaking down in the Big Bend desert. Tribeca 2023: Our 15 Most Anticipated Films Catching Dust In anticipation of this year’s festival, which runs June 7th-18th in New York City, here’s a rundown of the titles we’re most excited about - some big names, and a lot of interesting projects we feel could use more eyes. There are also a host of music docs exploring everyone from Gloria Gaynor to Cyndi Lauper, and the much-anticipated release of a filmed theatrical performance of Waitress! The Musical‘s Broadway run. It’s the year of actors-turned-directors, with acclaimed performers getting behind the director’s chair for either the first (Chelsea Peretti, Michael Shannon) or latest (Steve Buscemi) time. While previous years have felt hampered by COVID-era delays and other release hiccups, 2023 feels like a bit of a return to form, with a bevy of exciting titles to look forward to. It’s up to Tribeca to usher us through the summer months, giving us a slew of new releases to chew on for a little while. But we’re also not quite at the fall fest season, where TIFF and NYFF (and more niche genre fests we love, like Fantasia and Fantastic Fest) haven’t quite happened yet. The Tribeca Film Festival always arrives at a funny time in the annual film fest season: The starry, optimistic highs of Sundance and SXSW are behind us, and the big international voices are reeling from what was shown to them at Cannes. From music docs to actors directing to the first time, Tribeca 2023 has plenty of exciting new films to offer.
