For a handful of hours, Finbar’s Pub and Grill in Rehoboth Beach became a movie set. Actress Greta Gerwig, dressed in drag, slid into a booth next to actor Olly Alexander, dolled up in a long, fuchsia dress. It’s a short shot in “Drift,” an independent movie about infidelity and self-discovery set in the Cape Region.
“That’s the scene where she’s trying to relive what her husband did,” said director Allison Bagnall. “It’s her way of taking control of what happened.”
“Drift,” a working title, is the story of Rose (Gerwig), who discovers her husband’s affair with her childhood friend. She tracks the paramour to southern Delaware. Just as her pursuit drives her insane with rage, she runs across a listless British traveler, played by Alexander. Their romance is unsustainable, said producer Amy Seimetz, but cathartic for Rose.
