The mother of a teenage boy who went on a high-school killing spree tries to deal with her grief - and feelings of responsibility for her child's actions.
Director: Lynne Ramsay
Stars: Tilda Swinton, John C. Reilly, Ezra Miller
The Buzz: Lynne Ramsay's third film has been reviewed as an artful interpretation of Lionel Shriver's novel, a meditation on family, violence, guilt. Clearly this is the sort of role that's a custom-fit for Tilda Swinton, and we understand each member of this tragic family turns in crushing performances; John C. Reilly truly is an under-rated dramatic actor. Can't wait to see how Ms. Ramsay fits into the larger film discussion with her most high profile project to date.
