We Need To Talk About Kevin Dir: Lynne RamsayPhotoTrailerSynopsisDirectorWE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN is an emotional thriller, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Lynne Ramsay and starring Tilda Swinton.
Eva puts her ambitions and career aside to give birth to Kevin. The relationship between mother and son is difficult from the very first years. When Kevin is 15, he does something irrational and unforgivable in the eyes of the entire community. Eva grapples with her own feelings of grief and responsibility. Did she ever love her son? And how much of what Kevin did was her fault? “Enhanced by a brilliantly subtle score by Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood (who also composed the music for “There Will Be Blood”), Ramsay’s film blurs the relationship between time, cause and effect to pose nature-versus nurture questions about predisposition, maternal instinct, guilt and conditional love. The answers are far from clear-cut, so be prepared for a post-credits debate among friends.” Michele Maheux, Toronto FF
