Some Velvet Morning
Two-hander character study from writer/director Neil LaBute, starring Stanley Tucci and Alice Eve as ex-lovers locked in an unnerving game of emotional cat and mouse. When she rejects his attempts to rekindle their romance, his persistence evolves into obsession - and a dark history between the former lovers comes into focus. Hailed as a return to form for LaBute, Some Velvet Morning is a stripped down look at love and obsession shot all in one location.
