Captain America
Ask the dust Preview
Academy Award-winner Robert Towne (Chinatown, Tequila Sunrise) writes and directs Ask the Dust, set under the brutally sunny skies of Depression-era Los Angeles. Based on novelist John Fante's masterpiece, Towne's interpretation of Ask the Dust focuses on a city exotic and vulgar, glamorous and raunchy - a place of heat and dust. Full of imports - palm trees from Egypt and people from everywhere in search of health and wealth, fame and fortune - L.A. is the city of first and last resort, where all dreams are supposed to come true.
So it is for Arturo Bandini (Colin Farrell), a son of Italian immigrants who dreams of becoming a famous novelist and marrying a beautiful blonde, and Camilla Lopez (Salma Hayek), a Mexican who longs to marry a WASP and shed her last name. In a time when Anglo-Chicano relations hang by tattered threads, Bandini and Camilla collide with one another, fighting the city and themselves to make their dreams come true.
Ask the Dust features a cast that includes Colin Farrell, Salma Hayek, Justin Kirk, Donald Sutherland, Dame Eileen Atkins and Idina Menzel.
Ask the Dust will have a limited release to theatres on March 10th.
