Accidents Happen: the American Australian dream
It may look American and sound American, but behind the US facade of Accidents Happen lays a star-powered Australian project ready to compete head-to-head with any independent film in the world.
Accidents Happen is Hollywood star Geena Davis’s first independent film. Few would know it from watching it without the credits, but that indie debut took place in Australia, in a project that expands the local industry’s globalisation of stories.
It is the story of Billy Conway (Harrison Gilbertson), a teenager whose family is still affected by a tragic car accident years ago. As he experiments being rebellious, another terrible accident is unwillingly set in motion, with a new set of consequences that ultimately force everyone to deal with their pain and guilt.
I’m sure someone must have already told you but Sebastian Gregory does not play the character Billy. Harrison Gilbertson does.
I must be blind…where does it mention that Sebastian Gregory played the role of Billy? Then again Encore might have acted promptly and made the amendment.
