MIDNIGHT SPECIAL Writer/Director: Jeff Nichols Starring: Michael Shannon, Jaeden Lieberher,Joel Edgerton, Adam Driver, Kirsten Dunst, Sam Shepard, Paul Sparks The early buzz on this film was that it was getting compared to such Spielberg classics as Close Encounters of the Third Kind or E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. It’s coming from the mind of writer and director Jeff Nichols which equates to even more hype. He’s an indie director whose previous credits include Mud, Take Shelter, and Shotgun Stories. There is a unique quality to his films, so this early buzz holds such promise.
