can anyone give me an estimate?

techincally i think it's modern day, but i don't think you're supposed to focus on that since there aren't a lot of clues. I think it supposed to have more of a mythological/timeless feel.

Well, the only giveaway I saw was that they had a 1980's station wagon that looked like it was weathered to hell and beaten down. I figure that could place the film in the 1990's or even modern day. I think DGG plays on the modern ignorance to the fact that people still live, quite happily, in such incredibly rural and "grimy" settings.
shareI love the way the era is played with so much. It's shot in such a 1970s style and it may be present day but i doubt it. when John is watching the choir on TV their hairstyles are way to retro to be contemporary. but i think that really works, it makes the story, already very fairytale like, seem even more timeless.
shareThat's a good question. There was a large George Foreman grill in the kitchen (you can see it in the background in a couple different scenes) so it couldn't have been that long ago.
shareI was curious myself. Most of the cars seen in the film are from the late 70's/early 80's. However, I did notice some newer models in the junkyard scene.

I posted that OP about 4yrs ago and in that time I've completely forgotten the movie which is interesting since I don't think I've ever completely forgot seeing a flick
