It was recently announced that Roman Polanski’s Carnage is to open the New York Film Festival at the end of September following its premiere at Venice, and while we in the UK have no release date the prospect of a Polanski comedy is an intriuging one.
Yasmina Reza’s play Le Dieu du Carnage has played on Broadway and the West End, with Ralph Fiennes and Tamsin Greig among the cast here in the UK and Polanski has once again proved his talent for attracting a decent cast for his films with Jodie Foster and John C. Reilly pairing up and facing off against Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz.
The two pairs play parents who decide to sit down and discuss an incident between their children at school, and chances are that pettiness and competition help the evening devolve from pleasentries to parental pedantries. It’s a great cast in front of Polanski’s camera so big things are expected.
