Novelist Noir 'The Lesson' Trailer with Richard E. Grant & Julie Delpy

"You're changing my work!" "I'm not..." "Who's the writer?!" TCM has revealed the official trailer for an intriguing noir thriller called The Lesson, arriving in theaters in July after premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival this month. Another noir based around "a battle of wits." Unable to find inspiration for his newest piece, young author Liam (Daryl McCormack from Good Luck to You, Leo Grande) takes on the titanic weight of tutoring the son of the legendary writer J.M. Sinclair (Richard E. Grant) and his wife Hélène Sinclair (Julie Delpy). Reeling from the mysterious passing of their eldest son, the Sinclairs push Liam to work harder and invite him to stay on the estate grounds with them. Soon enough, lies big and small unfurl as a well-intentioned exercise quickly transforms into a saga of lust, betrayal, jealousy, and the quest for legacy-defining relevance. TCM will also host a talk on July 8th with Alice Troughton discussing the films selected by Troughton that inspired this movie. Until then, have a taste of some footage in this trailer below. // Continue Reading ›
