We Need To Talk About Kevin 15

Tilda Swinton (Best Actress Oscar winner for Michael Clayton, I Am Love) stars in Lynne Ramsay’s (Ratcatcher, Morvern Callar) brutally powerful adaptation of the highly acclaimed novel.

Swinton is Eva, married to Franklin (John C. Reilly – Magnolia) and mother to Kevin, a troubled teenager who for seemingly no reason commits a terrible, Columbine-style high school shooting. Looking back at Kevin’s childhood afterwards, the film explores one of society’s most taboo subjects: that of a mother who has no bond with her child. Desperate to maintain the facade of normal parental intimacy with her son, Eva’s entire, carefully constructed persona shatters when her son’s act casts their relationship – or lack thereof – into the spotlight.
