Top 100 Most Anticipated Films of 2010: Peter Mullan’s Neds

Date:

IONCINEMA.com Top 100 Films

#36. Neds

Director/Writer: Peter Mullan
Producers: Olivier Delbosc, Alain de la Mata and Marc Missonnier
Distributor: Rights Available.

The Gist: A.k.a Non-Educated Delinquents, this is set in the late 1970s in Glasgow…(more)

Cast: Steven Robertson, Martin Bell and Marcus Nash.

Why is it on the list?: 2002’s The Magdalene Sisters demonstrated Mullan’s knack for holding a scene, capturing human drama without flinching. It’s a shame we’ve had to wait this long for his third feature film but from what I understand, this taps into a portion of Mullan’s own childhood — expect it to be void of cute.

Release Date/Status?Despite making Venice his only home, this could debut in Cannes.
