Out of place

This Must Be the Place (2011)

Directed by Paolo Sorrentino this film stars Sean Penn, Frances McDormand and Judd Hirsch. A reclusive former rock star living in Dublin travels to New York to see his dying father.

This is a pretty strange coming of age tale that takes a while to get going and features several bizarre turns along the way. Once the film does get going you can finally see where it's going but the first part is a little on the long side. Sean Penn's character is as strange as elements of the plot but is a really unusual performance for the star.


4/5
