Where's Robocop in Old Detroit? Read the full article on AICN Hello Everybody Freddy Beans here, With a one sheet for Yann Demange’s sophomore feature film WHITE BOY RICK below: Directed by: Yann Demange Story by: Andy Weiss and Logan & Noah Miller Screenplay by: Andy Weiss and Logan Miller & Noah Miller and Steve Kloves Produced by: John Lesher, Julie Yorn, Darren Aronofsky, and Scott Franklin Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Richie Merritt, Bel Powley, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Brian Tyree Henry, Rory Cochrane, RJ Cyler, Jonathan Majors, Eddie Marsan, Bruce Dern, and Piper Laurie Synopsis:Set in 1980s Detroit at the height of the crack epidemic and the War on Drugs, WHITE BOY RICK is based on the moving true story of a blue-collar father and his teenage son, Rick Wershe Jr., who became an undercover police informant and later a drug dealer, before he was abandoned by his handlers and sentenced to life in prison. I watched Demange’s first feature length film 71’ recently and was pleasantly surprised.  I had no idea what to expect when I started but war movies get me just about every time out, so I checked it out.  In that one, they followed a British soldier as he is abandoned by his unit and must make his way through the streets of Belfast on his own.
