Filmmaker Amy Redford talks about her second movie as a director, 'What Comes Around,' a thriller filmed in Park City in 16 days during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Her second film as a director, ‘What Comes Around,’ opens Friday at Salt Lake City’s Broadway Centre Cinemas.
, and will open Friday at Salt Lake City’s Broadway Centre Cinemas — in Park City, Utah, with a cast led by Grace van Dien and Kyle Gallner , and with Summer Phoenix and Jesse Garcia in supporting roles. Redford is a fifth-generation Utahn, on her mother’s side. Her mom, historian and activist Lola van Wagenen, was 19 when she married a California-born painter-turned-actor in 1958 — a guy named Robert Redford — and introduced him to her home state. They built a cabin in the Utah woods, and when he made some money, they bought a ski resort in Provo Canyon and renamed it Sundance. Amy, the youngest of four children, spent her childhood split mostly between Utah and New York.
A large portion of the movie’s small budget went toward COVID-19 testing, Redford said, but the circumstances of shooting during the pandemic helped make for an intimate set. “What Comes Around” — Redford’s second film as director, after the 2008 cancer drama “The Guitar” — is a thriller, but “what I loved about it was that I got to kind of Trojan horse some themes in, through genre,” she said.
The script, Redford said, got her thinking about the state of the world. “We’re living in this strangely binary world, where people are either good or evil, that you’re either on this side of the fence or on that side of the fence.”
