I’m not familiar with Lionel Shriver’s book, but I may have to put it on my reading list after watching this trailer for We Need to Talk About Kevin. Directed by Lynne Ramsey, We Need to Talk About Kevin stars Tilda Swinton, John C Reilly, and Ezra Miller and is rated R for disturbing violence and behavior, some sexuality and language.
The Plot:
We Need to Talk About Kevin explores the factious relationship between a mother and her son. Tilda Swinton, in a bracing, tour-de-force performance, plays the mother, Eva, as she contends for 15 years with the increasing malevolence of her first-born child, Kevin (Ezra Miller).
Based on the best-selling novel of the same name, We Need to Talk About Kevin explores nature vs. nurture on a whole new level as Eva’s own culpability is measured against Kevin’s innate evilness. Ramsay’s masterful storytelling simultaneously combines a provocative moral ambiguity with a satisfying and compelling narrative, which builds to a chilling, unforgettable climax.
