First feature film directed by Michael Morris.
In a 2022 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Michael Morris spoke about the reasoning behind shooting the movie on 35mm film: "Right at the beginning, I knew that I wanted this to have the texture and grit and grain of film. I wasn't directly trying to make a 1970s movie, but I knew it would carry that kind of atmosphere about it. A lot of the visual references actually were from mid-century street photographers, who obviously shot on film. When Larkin Seiple came on board to shoot it, we looked at each other and we were like, 'This has to be on film, right?' We tested 35, 16 millimeter, and some digital grain filters. But it was clear after the test that there was only one choice, and I didn't want fake grain on this. I wanted to be ingrained in more of an American look."
Andrea Riseborough and Owen Teague also played a mother/son duo in the Netflix drama Bloodline (2015).
The film received critical acclaim, with Andrea Riseborough's performance garnering widespread praise and a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress.
The film had its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 12, 2022.
