Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
“In a sense life in the high-rise had begun to resemble the world outside - there were the same ruthlessness and agression concealed within a set of polite conventions.”
Magnus Martinsson ~ Wallander S1, Ep.2: Firewall (2008)
“There was no ‘too far’ with this film,” Sienna Miller says about acting in Ben Wheatley’s adaptation of J.G. Ballard’s dystopian 1975 novel, High-Rise. “We got to push our boundaries,” continues Luke Evans on appearing in the intensely claustrophobic film about tenants living in a posh 1970s skyscraper who increasingly become cut off from the outside world, leading to chaos, violence and anarchy within the apartment tower. The film, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this year and opens in theaters today, also stars Tom Hiddleston, who joined the two for a chat about social media and its prophetic-like relationship to Ballard’s story, New York versus London and how quickly humans can turn into animals.
You are a cool cucumber.
