Tied Up Like a Dog in 'Heel' Trailer with Anson Boon & Stephen Graham

"Life's sick sometimes. It's your only chance to get out of your head." Magnolia Pictures has unveiled an official trailer for a crazy weird movie called Heel, about a family that takes in a troubled boy & chains him up like a dog. Heel premiered at TIFF last year under the title Good Boy, and it also played at the London Film Festival right after, but not at many other fests aside from those. It's ready to hit US theaters in March. A 19-year-old criminal, Tommy, is kidnapped and forced into a rehabilitation process by a dysfunctional couple, Chris and Kathryn, who try to make him a "good boy." Tommy must find a way to escape at any cost. The obviously reminds me of A Clockwork Orange, also about a hooligan who gets rehabilitated, but this has a few different twists and turns in it. Anson Boon stars as the "good boy", along with Stephen Graham, Andrea Riseborough, Kit Rakusen, & Savannah Steyn. Another new film by the acclaimed Polish director of Corpus Christi and last year's Anniversary. This looks totally wacky and committed to the bit enough to actually work – though I think it's pretty obvious what's going to happen with him. Get a look. // Continue Reading ›
