The Toronto International Film Festival has debuted the international trailer for the thriller The Company You Keep [COYKP] starring Robert Redford [RREDF] who also directed. Sony Picture Classics will distribute domestically.
Jim Grant (Redford) is a widowed single father and attorney living in Albany. What none of his friends or clients know is that Jim was once a member of the activist/terrorist organization the Weather Underground. Wanted for robbery and the murder of a security guard, Jim has been in hiding for more than thirty years. When another former Weatherman (Susan Sarandon [SSARA]) turns herself in to the FBI, Ben Shepard (Shia LaBeouf [SLABE]), an aggressive young journalist, starts sniffing around for leads. He gradually finds his way to Jim, not suspecting that this seemingly upright citizen is himself a former militant activist. Concerned that Ben will eventually discover his true identity, Jim flees, though a safe harbour may prove difficult to find.
