A new trailer has just arrived for Eileen, a film we caught earlier this year at Sundance. Thomasin McKenzie and Anne Hathaway lead the cast of the film which is directed by William Oldroyd.
Eileen is based on the book of the same name Ottessa Moshfegh and follows a peculiar young woman whose dreary life stretches on toward unending misery.
In frigid 1960s Boston, Eileen(Thomasin McKenzie) shuffles between her father’s dingy, emotionally haunted home and the prison where she works alongside colleagues who have ostracized her. When an intoxicating woman (Anne Hathaway) joins the prison staff, Eileen is taken. Just when the possibility of a salvational friendship (or maybe more) takes hold and forms a singular glimmer in Eileen’s darkness, her newfound confidant entangles her in a shocking crime that alters all.
This one finally comes to screens in the UK through Universal Pictures on 1st December so there’s not too long to wait.
Here’s the new trailer.
