Jenny Slate Goes Full-Blown ’90s in First ‘Landline’ Trailer (Video)
Amazon Studios hot Sundance acquisition “Landline” is approaching release, and the retiming of Gillian Robespierre (“Obvious Child”) and Jenny Slate is a 1990s paradise.
Edie Falco, John Turturro, newcomer Abby Quinn and Jay Duplass round out the indie, about a dysfunctional Manhattan family grappling with transitions in their lives amidst a cheating scandal in their house.
Amazon cut a $3 million check for rights to the film, which revels in its time period and is sure to be a massive nostalgia trap.
Gems like The California Raisins, record stores with “listening towers,” insane fashion like nylon tracksuits, payphones, Rolling Stone covers with Winona Ryder, mini-backpacks, Hibachi-style restaurants like Benihana and more pop up in the trailer.
