If (a) you can’t pronounce the fecking title, (b) you don’t even know what it fecking means, and (c) the trailer is selling a downhead gloom vibe, the movie is fecking dead in the water.
Sorry, mate, but aside from the “reclusive Daniel Day Lewis returns to the screen” factor, Anemone (Focus Feautres, 10.3) is a fecking suicide mission.
Directed by the cherry-haired Ronan Day-Lewis…here’s hoping it’s a film of substance.
Watching the gray and grizzled DDL do his usual intense-darkman thing will, of course, be worth the price of admission for hardcore cinefiles, but Joe and Jane Popcorn will shine this thing so fast that Ronan and DDL’s heads will spin.
The jowly-faced Sean Bean (remember when he was lean-faced in Patriot Games?) appears to be the principal costar. Samantha Morton, Samuel Bottomley and Safia Oakley-Green also appear and presumably act.
