We Need to Talk about Kevin wins Best Film at London Film Festival

27 Oct 2011

We are extremely happy to announce that We Need to Talk about Kevin has been named Best Film at the 2011 BFI London Film Festival. Earlier this year We Need to Talk about Kevin was in the official competition at the 64th Cannes Film Festival. This exquisitely realised adaptation of Lionel Shriver's (second from the left) bestselling novel features Tilda Swinton in a remarkable performance as Eva.

Trying to grapple with her own feelings towards her son Kevin (Ezra Miller - first left), who committed unimaginable action shatters Eva's life. Did she resent her son since birth? What was her role in it? Could she have done anything to help him? Directed by Lynne Ramsay (second from the right) We Need to Talk about Kevin is an unflinching portrayal of a mother's troubled relationship with her son.

We will be releasing this absolutely captivating film on November 17. You can catch it in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra.
