If you're still hungry for a little more Ansel Elgort after the success of Edgar Wright's BABY DRIVER earlier this year, then you'll be pleased to know that 2017 still holds one more Elgort flick in its tank. Adapted from the novel by Sam Munson, NOVEMBER CRIMINALS stars Ansel Elgort as Addison Schacht and Chloë Grace Moretz as Digger, best friends who set out to solve the mysterious murder of a classmate after authorities insist that the killing was gang-related. Catherine Keener and David Strathairn also star in NOVEMBER CRIMINALS, which wrapped production over two years ago. Now, there are plenty of examples of decent movies which have sat on the shelf for an extended period, but I'll leave it up to you fine folks to decide which category NOVEMBER CRIMINALS falls into.
The official synopsis of "The November Criminals" via Amazon:
High school senior Addison Schacht is taking the prompt for his college entry essay to the University of Chicago to heart: What are your best and worst qualities? He begins to look back on his life so far and considers what getting into college, selling some pot to his classmates, his relationship with his best friend—not girlfriend—Digger, Virgil’s Aeneid, and his growing obsession with the murder of a classmate, Kevin Broadus, all mean. The more he digs into his own past, the farther he stumbles into the middle of the murder investigation.
NOVEMBER CRIMINALS will be released digitally on November 7, 2017, before hitting theaters in a limited release on December 8, 2017.
