Childhood friends Lily...
Two childhood friends reconnect as teenagers and bond over each other's destructive tendencies in Corey Finley's directorial debut.
Childhood friends Lily (Anya Taylor-Joy, The Witch) and Amanda (Olivia Cooke, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl) reconnect in suburban Connecticut after years of growing apart. Though they initially seem completely at odds, the pair bond over Lily’s contempt for her oppressive stepfather, Mark, and as their friendship grows, they begin to bring out one another’s most destructive tendencies. Their ambitions lead them to hire a local hustler, Tim, and take matters into their own hands to set their lives straight.

Variety
Variety"Thoroughbred is light on story, and could probably use a little padding out... but it nonetheless impresses with its mordant humour and grim, gliding style."
—
Vanity Fair
Vanity Fair"Thoroughbreds plunges you into an ice-cold bath of amorality, but debuting writer-director Cory Finley has such a command of details that you'll laugh your way through the shivers."

Time Out

The New York Times
The New York Times"First-time director Cory Finley makes a bold arrival with the pulpy, twisty psycho-thriller Thoroughbred."

Screen Daily
Screen Daily"Spending 90 minutes with a pair of teenage sociopaths may not sound like your idea of entertainment, but these two are a peculiarly nasty pleasure to be around, in part because they seem utterly indifferent to either your presence or your approval."
—
Los Angeles Times
Los Angeles Times"Finley ... combines a gift for tart and taut dialogue with a natural cinematic flair that heightens the drama."
