I caught this movie back in mid-february it kicked off my Glasgow Film Festival season for me and it is an very enjoyable movie and refreshing to the pallette especially with the amount of crap coming out of Hollywood these days, so when something thats a little bit different comes along its just nice to watch whatever the genre or country is comes from.
Heartless is about Jamie a young guy (played by Jim Sturgess) who has an large birthmark on his face, he feels ashamed, hes picked on by the local youths. He would do anything to get rid of the birthmark and he gets his chance when he meets a demon (might be the devil?) who gives him a chance of new face but when you deal with the devil, theres a price to pay…you must kill someone.
Trailer gets you into the thick of the movie, very intense, provoking but also sad as well, all in a very good movie with a brilliant cast to back it up. Timothy Spall, brilliant Eddie Marsan,Noel Clarke, Clémence Poésy and Joesph Mawle as the demon.
The movie is getting a limited release in the UK & Ireland on May 21st, which is a shame and as for USA no news yet but possibly IFC may pick it up giving the movie some coverage stateside.
