Argent Pictures has announced that Courtney Hoffman’s widely acclaimed feminist western short film The Good Time Girls starring Laura Dern (Jurassic Park, October Sky, Wild, The Fault In Our Stars), will be fully financed and produced into a feature adaptation. The film will mark the feature directorial debut of Hoffman, who just last month signed on to direct Ruthless for Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Partners.
“The Good Time Girls is dedicated to the ideology that when women unite, incredible change is possible. I can’t imagine a more important time to tell this story than in our current climate,” said Hoffman. “I am so grateful that Argent Pictures shares my vision and is supporting me along with my producers to homage a male dominated genre with a feminine perspective, on and off the camera.”
The Good Time Girls is a blood-soaked western that follows a group of brothel workers, turned female vigilantes, who band together to exact revenge on the wanted outlaws who have been terrorizing the American West. Take a look at the short film here…
