The Beguiled, GFT, 19 – 27 July, 2017
Oscar-winner Sofia Coppola became the second woman in history to win Best Director at Cannes Film Festival for this atmospheric period thriller. Adapted from Thomas Cullinan’s novel of the same name, The Beguiled unfolds during the American Civil War, at a Southern girls’ boarding school whose sheltered young women take in an injured enemy soldier (Colin Farrell). As they provide refuge and tend to his wounds, headmistress Martha (Nicole Kidman) and teacher Edwina (Kirsten Dunst) are as affected by his presence as the girls in their charge. The soldier heals, but tensions slowly rise until they can only boil over into tragedy.
