Some mystery is coming to Sundance! Alyssa Smith sits down with actor Cory Gruter-Andrew to discuss his role in the new movie "Summer of '84." The mystery thriller follows the story of four teenage boys launching their own investigation into a potential serial killer. Gruter-Andrew talks about what it was like going back in time to the '80s and filming at an old bowling alley with no technology. Plus, people are comparing this movie to Netflix's "Stranger Things." Gruter-Andrew takes it as a compliment, but says "Summer of '84" is certainly more realistic than "Stranger Things." As far as Gruter-Andrew's personal career goes, he talks about going to acting camp after encouragement from his parents. He may only be 16 years old, but his dream collaboration would be a drama with Tom Hanks!
