"What would your life be like if you somehow changed the past and saved Max?" Searchlight Pictures has revealed a final featurette for the romantic drama time travel film The Greatest Hits, the latest film from filmmaker Ned Benson (of The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby films). This will be streaming on Hulu later this week for everyone to enjoy - watch the main official trailer here. Written and produced by Benson, Harriet experiences a unique connection between art and reality. She discovers that specific songs have the power to transport her back in time, driving her to relive special moments with her ex-boyfriend. Her time-traveling begins to bleed into the present when she meets a new guy named David. Throughout the journey, she explores the mesmerizing link between music and memory, facing her with the difficult decision to move on. Lucy Boynton stars with Justin H. Min, David Corenswet, Andie Ju, Retta, Austin Crute. This featurette doesn't have any behind-the-scenes looks, but it does have interviews with the cast and director discussing this story and these characters in it. Looks good - a nice reminder this is opening later this week.
Here's the "Just Live" featurette for Ned Benson's The Greatest Hits, direct from Searchlight's YouTube:

Harriet (Lucy Boynton) finds art imitating life when she discovers that certain songs have the power to transport her back in time – literally. While she continues to relive the past through romantic memories of her former boyfriend (David Corenswet), her time traveling collides with a burgeoning new love interest in the present (Justin H. Min). As she takes her journey through the hypnotic connection between music and memory, she wonders – even if she could change the past, should she? The Greatest Hits is written and directed by American indie filmmaker Ned Benson, director of The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Him & Her & Them trilogy of films previously, plus a few other shorts. Produced by Stephanie Davis, Shannon Gaulding, Cassandra Kulukundis, Michael London, Ned Benson. This is premiering at the 2024 SXSW Film Festival this month in the Narrative Spotlight section. Searchlight will release Benson's The Greatest Hits in select US theaters on April 5th, 2024, then streaming on Hulu starting April 12th this spring. Any good?
