St. Vincent has released its first trailer courtesy of The Weinstein Company. The film comes from writer/director Ted Melfi.
The film begins with Maggie, a single mother, who moves into a new home in Brooklyn with her 12-year old son, Oliver. Forced to work long hours, she has no choice but to leave Oliver in the care of their new neighbor, Vincent, a retired curmudgeon with a penchant for alcohol and gambling. An odd friendship soon blossoms between the improbable pair. Together with a pregnant stripper named Daka, Vincent brings Oliver along on all the stops that make up his daily routine – the race track, a strip club, and the local dive bar. Vincent helps Oliver grow to become a man, while Oliver begins to see in Vincent something that no one else is able to: a misunderstood man with a good heart.
St. Vincent stars Bill Murray, Melissa McCarthy, Chris O’Dowd and Naomi Watts. It hits theaters on October 24.
