SOMEDAY THIS PAIN WILL BE USEFUL TO YOU MOVIE TRAILER
Based on the best-selling novel by Peter Cameron, "Someday This Pain Will Be Useful To You" is a funny, tender, and brilliant film about James Sveck (Toby Regbo), a vulnerable teenager with a deep appreciation for the world and no idea how to live in it. James is the child of divorced parents living in Manhattan (Marcia Gay Harden and Peter Gallagher). While his estranged parents, and self absorbed sister may be better served examining their own lives, they seem more content conspiring to guide him in a more "normal" direction.
Surrounded by a family he cannot relate to, James can confide only in his enigmatic and benevolent grandmother Nanette (Ellen Burstyn) and eventually his athletic and idiosyncratic life coach Rowena (Lucy Liu). He develops a stormy friendship with John (Gilbert Owuor), the well groomed and articulate director of his mother's art gallery. With only months until college is set to start and with all these forces pulling him in divergent directions, this summer is set to change the course of James' life forever.
Starring Toby Regbo, Lucy Liu, Marcia Gay Harden, Peter Gallagher, Ellen Burstyn, Stephen Lang, Deborah Ann Woll, and Gilbert Owuor.
Directed by Roberto Faenza.
