David Ondaatje wants to scare you. In the edge-of-your-seat, heart pounding, what’s-about-to-happen kind of way. David Ondaatje also wants to move you. In the emotionally compelling, heartwarming, will-she-or-won’t-she kind of way. The first time feature filmmaker behind The Lodger has set the bar high with his adaptation of Marie Belloc Lowndes’s 1912 novel, which was the basis for Hitchcock’s 1927 same-titled film. With four successful shorts under his belt, Hope Davis and Alfred Molina on the screen, Michael Mailer in the co-producer chair and David Armstrong behind the camera, Ondaatje has every reason to believe his goal will be met.
