Viggo Mortensen Directs ‘The Dead Don’t Hurt’ With ‘Flipside’ & ‘Robot Dreams’ In Eclectic Indie Weekend – Specialty Preview


Viggo Moretensen's 'The Dead Don't Hurt' opened in moderate release with doc 'Flipside' and animated 'Robot Dreams' open the weekend indie box office.

Few big new studio wide releases, yes, but Viggo Mortensen’s latest is on 700 screens, plus limited openings for Chris Wilcha’s Flipside, Judd Apatow EP, and Spanish animated, Oscar-nominated Robot Dreams from Neon. The story of star-crossed lovers on the western U.S. frontier in the 1860s sees Vivienne Le Coudy (Vicky Krieps), a fiercely independent woman, settle in Nevada with Danish immigrant Holger Olsen (Mortensen). Cannavale is Max, a stand-up comedian living with his father (De Niro) while struggling to co-parent his autistic son Ezra (Fitzgerald) with his soon-to-be ex-wife (Byrne).
