YOU WERE NEVER REALLY HERE Headline Gala | BFI London Film Festival 2017
0 views • Oct 2, 2022
Director Lynne Ramsay and actor Joaquin Phoenix were on the red carpet for their BFI London Film Festival Gala screening of You Were Never Really Here. Lynne Ramsay’s stark inversion of the noir thriller is a devastatingly brutal portrayal of one man’s battle with repression and abuse, anchored by a rage-fuelled, Cannes-winning performance from Joaquin Phoenix. Joe (Phoenix) is a Gulf War veteran and former FBI agent turned killer-for-hire, specialising in saving victims from child sex rings and living at home with his ailing mother. When Nina, a US Senator’s daughter is kidnapped, he is contracted to dispense with the perpetrators and save the girl (Ekaterina Samsonov). Having located Nina in a seedy New York brothel, Joe’s escape plan suddenly derails, unleashing a maelstrom of violence.
