‘I Think We’re Alone Now’ Trailer: Peter Dinklage And Elle Fanning Survive The Apocalypse
The long break betweenGame of Thronesseasons means it’s been a while since we’ve seen a greatPeter Dinklageperformance. His work inAvengers: Infinity Warwas fine, but if you want to watch the actor dig into a more complex role, make sureI Think We’re Alone Nowis on your radar. It’s a new post-apocalyptic movie in which Dinklage plays the last man on Earth – but his tranquil existence is interrupted when he discovers a young woman (played bySuper 8’sElle Fanning) in his small abandoned town.

I Think We’re Alone Now Trailer
What a gorgeous trailer. This is the second movie fromReed Morano(who established the look ofThe Handmaid’s Talein its first season), and she served as both director and the director of photography on this film. The visuals are haunting and strangely beautiful, despite the fact that they depict a world engulfed by emptiness and death.
But the performances from both leads lend the movie the spark of life it needs. I saw this movie at Sundance back in January, so I can confidently state that this is one of Dinklage’s best performances in years. He can play soulfully sad with the best of them, and his character embraces isolation and bristles at any connection with Fanning, who yearns for the very connection he’s fighting against.
Here’s a quick excerpt frommy review:
Despite a premise that sounds overly familiar and a central relationship that could easily have tipped into eye-rolling territory, Morano, writerMike Makowsky, and the movie’s lead actors have crafted a poignant and humanist showcase of growth and compassion. Quiet, reflective, and intimate,I Think We’re Alone Nowis an exceptional exhibition for Dinklage and Fanning and a further illustration of the dynamic talent of filmmaker Reed Morano.
Here’s the film’s official synopsis:
Del (Peter Dinklage) is alone in the world. After the human race is wiped out, he lives in his small, empty town, content in his solitude and the utopia he’s methodically created for himself – until he is discovered by Grace (Elle Fanning), an interloper whose history and motives are obscure. Worse yet, she wants to stay.
I Think We’re Alone Nowhits theaters in New York and Los Angeles onSeptember 14and then expands nationwide (and becomes available On Demand) onSeptember 21, 2018.
