Cannes 2011: We Need To Talk About Kevin Clips

We Need To Talk About Kevin

I know we already had a report about this one, but trust me, We Need To Talk About Kevin once again, because we have three fresh clips from writer/director Lynne Ramsay’s project, which is, by the way, definitely one of most anticipated films of this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

So, check them out, I think it deserves your attention, no romantic comedy here, just a cruel reality and a woman forced to question whether she ever loved her son and how much she is to blame for what he did.

Based on a novel by Lionel Shriver, and co-scripted by Ramsay and writer Rob Festinger, the movie follows:

“Eva Khatchadourian is a smart, skeptical New Yorker whose impulsive marriage to Franklin, a much more conventional person, bears fruit, to her surprise and confessed disquiet, in baby Kevin. From the start Eva is ambivalent about him, never sure if she really wanted a child, and he is balefully hostile toward her; only good-old-boy Franklin, hoping for the best, manages to overlook his son’s faults as he grows older, a largely silent, cynical, often malevolent child.

The later birth of a sister who is his opposite in every way, deeply affectionate and fragile, does nothing to help, and Eva always suspects his role in an accident that befalls little Celia. The narrative, which leads with quickening and horrifying inevitability to the moment when Kevin massacres seven of his schoolmates and a teacher at his upstate New York high school, is told as a series of letters from Eva to an apparently estranged Franklin, after Kevin has been put in a prison for juvenile offenders….”

Movie stars Tilda Swinton, John C. Reilly and Ezra Miller, and as we said, this indie drama is scheduled to premiere In Competition at this year’s Cannes Film festival, yeah, it begins tomorrow!

Enjoy the clips, and stay tuned!
