Trailer Watch: Jessie Buckley Sings Her Truth in “Wild Rose”

"Wild Rose"

Jessie Buckley won’t let an ankle monitor, curfew, or small minds get in the way of her dreams in “Wild Rose.” A trailer for the Scotland-set drama sees aspiring country singer Rose-Lynn (Buckley) coming to terms with her past and working towards a different future. Recently released from prison, the single mom is rebuilding her relationships with her young children and working as a housekeeper when she finds a fan in her boss (Sophie Okonedo), who hears her sing and vows to get her to Nashville despite overwhelming odds.

Not everyone wants Rose-Lynn to pursue music. Her mom (Julie Walters) fears that she’ll cast off her kids and let them down when she’s busy trying to make something of herself. Rose-Lynn is also dealing with the stigma of her stint in jail. Before she takes the stage at a bar she’s told that “no one wants to see a convicted criminal up there.” “Johnny Cash is a convicted criminal, ya ballbag,” she responds.

For Rose-Lynn, country music is “recording the truth” and getting “whatever is in there out.” And she’s determined to do just that.

“The Woman in White,” “Taboo,” and “War & Peace” are among Buckley’s credits.

“Wild Rose” opens in LA and NY June 14. Nicole Taylor (“Three Girls”) penned the script.
