After presenting it in a trio of markets, Myriad Pictures is now showing off the goods – a 20-minute reel for the adaptation of the 1962 novel by Patricia Highsmith. Cry of the Owl sees Julia Stiles playing a woman who falls in love with her stalker. Paddy Considine will play the man who moves to Stiles’ suburban town and begins spying on her. Speedman will play her jilted ex, who complicates matters further when he plots revenge against her. This is Jamie Thraves directorial debut.
