“A foul-mouthed former gymnastics bronze medalist must fight for her local celebrity status when a new young athlete’s star rises in town.”
So far feedback for The Bronze has been well, pretty bad. It doesn't help that the trailer makes it look very much like a low-budget film (which it is) but a few select people who caught the film at the Sundance Film Festival say it is entertaining in a raunchy humor sort of way. The script was written by lead Melissa Rauch and her husband Winston Rauch. My expectations are low on this one but I do like Thomas Middleditch (Silicon Valley) so I will wait and see. Check out the trailer below.
Hope Ann Greggory won the bronze medal for the women's gymnastics team in 2004. Today, she lives in her father's basement, washed up and largely forgotten. When a promising young gymnast who idolizes her threatens her local celebrity status, Hope is forced to reassess her life.
