Nicole Kidman’s Surreal Infidelity Thriller ‘Holland’ Divides SXSW’s Typically Easy-to-Please Crowd
'Holland,' a Midwestern thriller led by Nicole Kidman and Matthew Macfadyen, received mixed reactions at its SXSW premiere.
In fact, a sizzle reel shown before every screening on Sunday to highlight the previous day’s programming included clips of filmmakers like Dave Franco and Paul Feig heaping praise on the Austin crowd for their positive energy. Kidman still attracted a healthy dose of cheers when her name came up as the film was introduced and when she appeared onstage afterwards, but the volume was lower than usual due to empty sections of seats. The film is named after Holland, Michigan, the Dutch-influenced city where it takes place, and before things go awry, Nancy is the perfect picture of an old-school American housewife.
