Coming soon to a cinema near you-We Need to Talk about Kevin

I'm really excited about the arrival of We Need to Talk about Kevin to the big screen at the end of this month. Based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Lionel Shriver, the story follows a mother who tries to deal with her grief and feelings by writing to her estranged husband after her 15-year-old son goes on a killing spree at his secondary school.

The film adaption sees Tilda Swinton play mother Eva, John C Reilly as dad Franklin and Ezra Miller as Kevin. As films go this is sure to be a hit, after being critically acclaimed at the Cannes Film Festival.
