In anticipation of its limited theatrical release on Feb 17th and the upcoming Academy Awards, Drafthouse films has released a full trailer for Michael R. Roskam’s debut feature, Bullhead.
While my review is set to run later this week, I”ll tell you right now this is one film that you need to see. The trailer perfectly depicts its slow and serious tone but also paints a perfect picture of the level of intensity that you’ll experience throughout. Check out the trailer and synopsis below and make sure you put Bullhead officially on your radar.
Bullhead stars Matthias Schoenaerts, Jeroen Perceval, Barbara Sarafian, Jeanne Dandoy, Tibo Vandenbore and Sam Louwyck.
Perhaps the year’s most stunning international debut, Michael R. Roskam’s BULLHEAD is a harrowing tale of revenge, redemption and fate. Domineering cattle farmer Jacky Vanmarsenille (Mattias Schoenaerts in a ferocious breakout performance), constantly pumped on steroids and hormones, initiates a shady deal with a notorious mafioso meat trader. When an investigating federal agent is assassinated and a woman from his traumatic past resurfaces, Jacky must confront his demons and face the far-reaching consequences of his decisions. Acclaimed at festivals worldwide including the Berlin Film Festival, AFI Fest and Fantastic Fest, the award-winning BULLHEAD is visceral thriller bursting with rage that TwitchFilm calls “one of the most original crime films in recent memory.”
