Verfasst: 2019-06-17 23:55
After 636 sneaks, former "brat pack" star Emilio Estevez (son of Martin and brother of Charlie Sheen) returns to this event with his latest directorial effort. As with "Bobby" (Sneak #0638) - his 2006 retelling of the Robert F. Kennedy assassination - he has assembled a big ensemble of actors (including several well-known ones) for a story that this time does not center around a hotel, but rather a public library involutarily doubling as a homeless shelter. Estevez got the idea for "The Public" from a 2007 newspaper article about librarians who, due to homeless people outnumbering the available shelter beds by quite some margin, have found themselves in the unenviable position of becoming de-facto untrained social workers. In the end, it took more than a decade to complete the script (once again written by Estevez himself), secure the financing, and actually film the whole thing.
And the trailer looks like this:
