Starring Tilda Swinton
Tilda Swinton can do anything. I'm almost sure of it. She can be the British actor playing the villain for blockbusters (The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe) or she can win an Oscar for crying with evil shock (Michael Clayton).
Pretty much a bad guy again. Or is she?
An alcoholic, Julia is quickly befriended by a neighbour who wants to get her son back. So on a whim Julia is asked to kidnap the son and be paid for it. After consultation with other seedy friends, Julia tracks down the child and nabs him for what is to be a road trip movie.
Long it is, but every second is a joy. Tilda Swinton is capable of being what she needs to be. All along I could tell nothing much would happen, yet I was happy with being in her presence and her own 'sanity'.
5/5
