Description

Buried follows Paul Conroy, an American civilian truck driver in Iraq who wakes inside a wooden coffin after an attack on his convoy. With only a lighter and a mobile phone, Paul tries to identify his captors, reach help and conserve a dwindling supply of air. Ryan Reynolds plays Paul, while José Luis García Pérez, Robert Paterson, Stephen Tobolowsky and Samantha Mathis are heard or represented through the calls connecting him to the outside world.

Rodrigo Cortés directed and edited the film from Chris Sparling’s screenplay, with Eduard Grau as cinematographer and Víctor Reyes as composer. Lionsgate opened the film in Los Angeles and New York on September 24, 2010. AFI records a 94-minute R-rated version, while the current Apple TV and Google Play pages display 95 minutes, so viewers should use the runtime shown by their chosen service.
