Synopsis
King of California (2007) is a dark comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Mike Cahill and starring Michael Douglas alongside Evan Rachel Wood. Shot in the US, it runs 96 minutes.
Charlie walks out of a psychiatric facility with one certainty: Spanish missionaries buried gold somewhere under a California suburb, and he intends to dig it up. His teenage daughter Miranda has spent the past year working two jobs and managing without him. She's skeptical, but she gets pulled in anyway — partly because he's her father, partly because some part of her wants to believe the treasure is real. Douglas plays Charlie as a man whose delusions have a strange internal logic, and Wood carries the film's emotional weight quietly. The joke lands differently once you realize the film isn't really about gold. Stream King of California (2007) online on iFILM.
