Watch The Trailer For HELLO, MY NAME IS DORIS Starring Sally Field And Tyne Daly
After a lifetime of being overlooked and ignored, a woman of a certain age finds her world turned upside down by a handsome new co-worker and a self-help seminar that inspires her to take a chance on love in HELLO, MY NAME IS DORIS, a witty and compassionate late-life coming-of-age-story.
In his SXSW review from March, Scott Weinberg (Nerdist.com) writes, “… it’s Sally Field’s show from stem to stern. Not only does Ms. Field seem to bring out the best in her wide array of co-stars, but clearly she’s still got the skills required to steal an entire movie through sheer force of good humor, good timing, and plain old natural sweetness.”
Here’s a first look at the delightful new trailer.
When Doris Miller (Sally Field) meets John Fremont (Max Greenfield), her company’s hip new art director, sparks fly – at least for Doris. Her first encounter with true romance (outside of the pages of a novel) convinces Doris that she and the mostly unaware John are meant for each other. In the cluttered house she shared with her late mother, Doris mines the Internet for information on her one-and-only, guided by the 13-year-old granddaughter of her best pal Roz (Tyne Daly).
When Doris begins showing up at John’s regular haunts, she wins over his Williamsburg friends with her eclectic vintage wardrobe, quirky naiveté and unironic enthusiasm for their rooftop knitting circle. Her new life brings Doris a thrilling perspective, but also creates a rift between her and her longtime friends and family, who believe she’s making a fool of herself over a guy half her age. Eager for all the experiences she has missed out on, Doris throws caution to the wind and follows her heart for the very first time.
The movie also stars Natasha Lyonne, Kumail Nanjiani, Peter Gallagher, Wendi McLendon-Covey and Beth Behrs.
Based on a short film by Laura Terruso, HELLO, MY NAME IS DORIS was written by Terruso and Michael Showalter and directed by Showalter.
Field remembers feeling like she was reading something entirely new and different. “The script was so unusual,” she says. “I’d never come across anything like it. It certainly isn’t a standard mother role. Doris is unique and Michael generously allowed me to help find her. He put this movie together on a dime, but you’d never know that from watching it.”
Roadside Attractions will release HELLO, MY NAME IS DORIS in theaters March 11, 2016.
