John Wilson Lays Down ‘The History of Concrete’ With ‘The Weight’, ‘Sean The Sheep’ In Packed Indie Weekend – Specialty Preview

Filmmaker John Wilson has released a new documentary called The History of Concrete. The film is not just about the building material, but rather a exploration of various topics. Wilson's previous work, including his HBO show How To With John Wilson, showcased his discursive mode of thinking and ability to stumble upon unexpected stories.

The History of Concrete is being released in an exclusive engagement, alongside other specialty films. One such film is The Weight, a Depression-era western starring Ethan Hawke and Russell Crowe, which is receiving positive reviews. Another release is Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom, an animated film from GKids.

According to Deadline, the specialty weekend is relatively quiet, with fewer new studio releases. The Weight and The History of Concrete are among the films being highlighted, along with Tiny, a film starring Johnny Knoxville.
