We are going to be treated to a whole host of great British movies in 2016... and High-Rise is set to be one of the first that's not to be missed.
High-Rise
High-Rise marks the return of Ben Wheatley to the director's chair for what is his first feature film since A Field In England. The movie is based on the J.G. Ballard novel of the same name and I can't wait to see Wheatley put his own stamp on the story.
A great new poster has already been released this week and now we have the terrific new trailer to share with you. Check it out:
We are huge fans of Tom Hiddleston here at FemaleFirst and are delighted to see him back in a feature film; High-Rise is set to kick off another very busy year for the popular actor as he moves between film and television projects.
High-Rise will be the first time that Hiddleston has worked with the Kill List and Sightseers filmmaker.
A great British cast has been assembled for the film, as Jeremy Irons, Luke Evans, Sienna Miller, James Purefoy, and Keeley Hawes will all star alongside Hiddleston.
1975. Two miles west of London, Dr. Robert Laing moves into his new apartment seeking soulless anonymity, only to find that the building's residents have no intention of leaving him alone. Resigned to the complex social dynamics unfolding around him, Laing bites the bullet and becomes neighbourly.
As he struggles to establish his position, Laing's good manners and sanity disintegrate along with the building. The lights go out and the lifts fail but the party goes on. People are the problem. Booze is the currency. Sex is the panacea. Only much later, as he sits on his balcony eating the architect's dog, does Dr. Robert Laing finally feel at home...
High-Rise is a movie that I have been looking forward to for some time and it is always great to see Hiddleston back on the big screen.
High-Rise is released 17th March.
