This movie has a relatively low rating for its fine cast and I naturally wondered why. Now, having seen it, I know why. When it was over I asked my wife, "Of all the movies you have watched would this one be in the upper third, the middle third, or the lower third?" She quickly responded, "Definitely in the lower third."
Plus Casey Affleck has this frequent habit of mumbling his lines and a couple of times I was forced to turn on the subtitles. He is experienced enough, there is no longer an excuse for that.
The core of the story is the death of a psychiatric patient, seemingly from suicide. This came right after she was no longer considered suicidal. But as things develop that becomes in question and the man who claims to be her brother might really be someone else.
As a type of revenge the stranger blames the psychiatrist and systematically begins to dismantle his family. Sam Claflin as the bad guy is actually the best performance here.
On DVD from my public library. Set in Washington state but filmed in British Columbia. Curiously the title it says I am reviewing is "You Belong To Me." Maybe that was an earlier, working title.
