High-Rise
Directed by Ben Wheatley. Written by Amy Jump. Starring Tom Hiddleston, Jeremy Irons, Sienna Miller, Luke Evans, and Elizabeth Moss
Even for the fans of Tom Hiddleston, High-Rise may be a bit off-putting for most audiences. Ben Wheatley (who I know from directing a couple of Doctor Who episodes) appears to channel his inner Nicolas Winding Refn, creating what looks to be a visually stunning film with compelling performances from all who are involved. High-Rise focuses on a battle of classes that takes place in a luxury high rise complex, with the people on the upper floors living a lavish and luxurious lifestyle while the people down below struggle to live at all.
