MUBI, the global distributor, streaming service and production company, releases the new trailer and new artwork for Andrea Arnold’s (American Honey, Fish Tank, Cow) latest feature film Bird, in theatres in Canada from November 8, 2024.

The long-awaited return to fiction storytelling from Academy-Award®-winner Andrea Arnold (American Honey, Fish Tank), Bird is a tender, striking and extraordinarily surprising coming-of-age fable about marginalised life in the fringes of contemporary society. Featuring remarkable performances from Barry Keoghan (Saltburn), Franz Rogowski (Passages), and astounding newcomer Nykiya Adams as the latest in the filmmaker’s canon of indelible heroines.

12-year-old Bailey (Adams) lives with her devoted but chaotic single dad Bug (Keoghan) and wayward brother Hunter (Jason Buda) in a squat in Gravesend, north Kent. Approaching puberty and seeking attention and adventure, Bailey’s fractured home life is transformed when she encounters Bird (Rogowski), a mysterious stranger on a journey of his own.

Bird received its World Premiere in Competition at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. It was produced by House Productions (The Iron Claw, The Wonder) and was filmed in the UK around the Kent area. Financiers include BBC Film, the BFI (awarding National Lottery funding), Pinky Promise, FirstGen Content and Access Entertainment.

BIRD WILL BE IN THEATRES IN CANADA ON NOVEMBER 8, 2024

By Nicholas Porteous

Bailey, a lonely English girl, searches for an escape from her dysfunctional family existence in Andrea Arnold‘s Bird. One windy day on a hillside, she encounters a stranger–the titular Bird--who gives her a moment of much-needed, friendly attention. Bird (Franz Rogowski) is a man of few words, but that moment is enough to spark a unique partnership, shaking the foundations of both of their worlds. Bird is very much of a piece with Arnold‘s masterpiece American Honey. Both are fly-on-the-wall, naturalistic glimpses into the lives of the less fortunate, both engage with toxic relationships and newfound families, and both feature sprawling, unconventional narratives with loose ends and scores of characters that often feel too real to be acted. So why is Bird the far less compelling of the two?

For one, Bailey simply doesn’t have as much to offer as a main character. She’s more of a prism, reflecting the pain and injustices of her world. There’s also much less ambiguity when it comes to the ‘bad guys’ this time around. Barry Keoghan does a solid job bringing depth to his troubling father Bug, but Skate (James Nelson Joyce) feels tailor-made to bring as much unnecessary pain and unprovoked confrontation into every moment he’s on screen. It’s a cheap characterization that drives all too much of Bird‘s story.Bird also chooses to sidestep some violence, converting it into fantastical imagery in a way that I found questionable. Why shy away from the brutal reality? What is this imaginary escape in service of? I left Bird with even more appreciation for American Honey than I had before, because it shows how difficult it truly is to make this kind of movie feel effortless and unsentimental. Bird‘s wholehearted attempts at exploring three-dimensional characters and their traumas, while using basically the same techniques as Honey, feel so much more mushy and muddled.

Bird screens at TIFF ’24:

Saturday, September 7th at 3:00 PM at TIFF Lightbox

Sunday, September 8th at 11:45 AM at TIFF Lightbox

Friday, September 13th at 9:45 AM at Scotiabank Theatre

MUBI, the global distributor, streaming service and production company, is pleased to announce that Andrea Arnold’s (American Honey, Fish Tank, Cow) latest feature film Bird, will open theatrically in Canada on November 8, 2024, following its Canadian premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival.

Bird, written and directed by Academy-Award® winner Andrea Arnold, received its World Premiere in Competition at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. Starring BAFTA-winner and Academy-Award® nominee Barry Keoghan (Banshees of Inisherin, Saltburn), Gotham-Award nominee Franz Rogowski (Passages, Great Freedom, Transit), and newcomers Nykiya Adams and Jason Buda, Bird is produced by House Productions (The Iron Claw, The Wonder) and was filmed in the UK around the Kent area. As with Arnold’s previous work, it is an examination of life in the fringes of society. Financiers include BBC Film, the BFI (awarding National Lottery funding), Pinky Promise, FirstGen Content and Access Entertainment.

12-year-old Bailey lives with her single dad Bug and brother Hunter in a squat in North Kent. Bug doesn’t have much time for his kids and Bailey who is approaching puberty seeks attention and adventure elsewhere.
