Although Gus Van Sant has made a few misfires (along with plenty of great movie), he’s never less than interesting, and so whenever he has a new film coming out, it’s worth taking a look at. Now a new trailer for his next pic, Restless, has arrived, which stars Mia Wasikowska and Henry Hopper (who looks eerily like his father, Dennis). In the film Annabel Cotton (Wasikowska) is a beautiful and charming terminal cancer patient with a deep felt love of life and the natural world. Enoch Brae (Hopper) is a young man who has dropped out of the business of living, after an accident claimed the life of his parents. When these two outsiders chance to meet at a funeral, they find an unexpected common ground in their unique experiences of the world. For Enoch, it includes his best friend Hiroshi, who happens to be the ghost of a Kamikaze fighter pilot. For Annabel, it involves an admiration of Charles Darwin and an interest in how other creatures live. Upon learning of Annabel’s imminent early passing, Enoch offers to help her face her last days with an irreverent abandon, tempting fate, tradition and even death itself. It all sounds rather quirky, and the sort of film that could either be an unexpected treat or too indie for its own good. We should get to find out when it reach UK cinemas on October 21st.
