Trance

Director Danny Boyle has hit a home run with his latest film Trance...great directing, great writing, great acting and great production values.

Writers Joe Ahearne and John Hodge have crafted a clever script, Editor Jon Harris weaves Cinematographer Anthony Don Mantle’s crisp images into an easy-to-follow representation of the twisting storyline and the cast led by James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson and Vincent Cassel is absolutely superb.

 

 

Other than to say that the story is about the theft of a Goya painting that has just been auctioned for $40 million and the search by the thieves for what happened to it, I won’t tell you anything else…except that, even if you think you know the answer, you’ll be wrong. 

                                        
Trance is a must-see for anyone who really loves a smart ride.  I give it a strong 4+ out of 5.
