Wakefield (2016)
Directed by Robin
Swicord this film based on the short story of the same name stars
Bryan Cranston and Jennifer Garner. A successful New York lawyer
comes home one day and decides to observe his family rather than have
contact with them any more.
Taking a fairly
unlikeable protagonist over the course of this unusual film we
explore the protagonist's psyche and come to be oddly moved by him.
This is certainly an unusual exploration of an individual and may
work well also as a play but is a fascinating watch. There are decent
performances and I was only slightly annoyed we never get to see the
fall out of the protagonists return home.
4/5
