Gael Garcia Bernal plays a sociopathic outsider threatening the apparently perfect life of his long-lost preacher father (William Hurt). In what now looks like a dry run for There Will Be Blood, Dano is the earnest son campaigning for creationism to be taught at school, and sideswiped by the emergence of his sinister half-brother. Variety labelled the film noxious. It's undoubtedly nasty, but Dano helps to lend it a pulse.

Dano's famous fans made sure to let him know they love his work. Ben Stiller, who directed Dano in Escape from Dannemora, was one of the first stars to show his support, calling him "f-ing brilliant." The latest support comes from Dano's soon-to-be coworker, Patrick Schwarzenegger, who was just announced to be co-starring alongside him in the upcoming psychological thriller Bunker from Oscar-winner Florian Zeller.
