Movieline Picks Films To Watch For At Sundance 2010
2) Welcome to the Rileys
Director: Jake Scott
Ridley Scott’s son Jake has been a sterling music video director (he helmed “Everybody Hurts” for R.E.M. and “Fake Plastic Trees” for Radiohead), but his only feature film credit is the misguided 1999 action comedy Plunkett and MacLeane. A decade later, Jake’s giving it another go with Welcome to the Rileys, already notorious as the movie where Twilight’s Kristen Stewart plays a troubled stripper. James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo costar as the couple who takes her in.

Kristen Stewart, the 19-year-old co-star of the “Twilight” blockbusters, plays a New Orleans stripper in “Welcome to the Rileys,” which also stars James Gandolfini as a damaged businessman. Mr. Cooper noted that Ms. Stewart also has a noncompetition entry: in “The Runaways,” directed by Floria Sigismondi, Ms. Stewart plays a young Joan Jett.
