Studio Canal UK have released the first trailer and poster for Before I Go to Sleep, the movie based on the best-selling mystery novel by S.J. Watson. It stars Nicole Kidman as a woman who loses her memory every time she wakes up, and who must solve a dark riddle related to her condition.
Why can’t she retain her memories? Well, when Kidman’s character discovers some terrifying new information, everything she thinks she knows about her life is thrown into question.
Before I Go to Sleep was written and directed by Rowan Joffe, and the Memento-like project looks set to be a very different to his last adaptation, Brighton Rock.
