"Were you painting something?" Amazon has unveiled the first look teaser for a film titled The Electrical Life of Louis Wain, from director Will Sharpe, featuring Benedict Cumberbatch as British artist Louis Wain. The film is premiering at the 2021 Telluride Film Festival this week, hence this first look debut, and will stop by TIFF next before opening in the fall. TIFF's intro is a fun one: "From Ancient Egypt to TikTok, cats have accompanied humans on life’s journey. But who made the creatures cute? Louis Wain tells the story of the Victorian-era artist whose widely published drawings of anthropomorphized cats transformed them from mysterious to irresistible. In a dazzling, career-best performance, Benedict Cumberbatch plays one of Britain's most influential eccentrics as a flurry of wild ideas and prodigious artistic output." The cast also includes Claire Foy as his wife, with Sophia Di Martino, Olivia Colman as the narrator, Andrea Riseborough, Jamie Demetriou, Toby Jones, and Stacy Martin, as well as a number of fun cameos. I need to some cats in this footage! Where are the cats, please? I'm curious if this will be any good in the end. ›››
