A queer love story plays out in a country western setting in National Anthem, Luke Gilford’s story about cowboy Dylan (Charlie Plummer) meeting a polyamorous couple.
“Grounded by vulnerable yet effervescent performances, National Anthem is a celebration of rural queerness,” wrote Mashable’s Kristy Puchko in her review. “It’s not a rallying cry, but instead a firm declaration of existence and the pursuit of happiness. Wrapped in the sunny hues of the New Mexican desert and floating on the charisma of a sexy and vulnerable ensemble, this drama charts its own path with clear eyes and queer hearts.”
National Anthem is in select theaters from July 12, and nationwide from July 19.
