The Weinstein Company has sent us a brand new trailer for Theodore Melfi's upcoming comedy
St. Vincent (2014), starring Bill Murray, Melissa McCarthy, Naomi Watts, Terrence Howard, and Chris O'Dowd. The film is set to open in select theaters across the United States on October 10th (general release date is October 24th).
Maggie (McCarthy), a single mother, moves into a new home in Brooklyn with her 12-year old son, Oliver (Lieberher). Forced to work long hours, she has no choice but to leave Oliver in the care of their new neighbor, Vincent (Murray), a retired curmudgeon with a penchant for alcohol and gambling. An odd friendship soon blossoms between the improbable pair. Together with a pregnant stripper named Daka (Watts), Vincent brings Oliver along on all the stops that make up his daily routine -- the race track, a strip club, and the local dive bar. Vincent helps Oliver grow to become a man, while Oliver begins to see in Vincent something that no one else is able to: a misunderstood man with a good heart.
