Anything is now. Little. Big money yeah. Television there. And -- Hi everybody I'm Peter Travers and welcome to popcorn where we tell you what's -- -- at the movies and there's a movie now called the guest. And its -- Stan Stephens and he plays well why should I tell you who plays when he's right here Dan -- thank you very well. So you've done this movie which is is far from your Matthew Crawley character -- Downton Abbey. As he could possibly be. Personally and there. He is -- -- -- yes. Is American the total opposite of perception -- -- and business let's hear yes OK because when. When your character died on that there were a lot of tea cups dropped -- all -- Britain. Yes and here which -- screen right that's it did what was throne and control told. Smash into anything -- which is -- -- Have people have people forgiven -- yet we're having left I think. People -- -- against the beginning to understand perhaps in some of the some of the reasons I wanted to just try something different you know and them. It was important to myself was as much as. You know and any -- from a demonstration ready to remind myself of you know what I wanted to be which was an actor and and someone who. You know have the opportunity to to -- very very different goals and and this crazy talk. Very very and so -- -- it -- don't wanna play the same thing over. Went down again and I played roles like -- you know for a few years and I was was still figuring out. Exactly what it is Wednesday and and something about stepping away from that show -- and being confronted with the question. What do you want to do. And trying to -- -- that as kind of as head on as I codes and continuing to -- that Tenet head -- as I can. You know when it when escrow by the -- pops up. -- suddenly reminded me all of a lot of those movies I'd love growing up that made me want to be -- -- I didn't know I was -- necessarily be in those kind of films that would twisted and with 2% in the but most important that was fun and you know I remember that feeling that I -- from watching. Cut Russell in big trouble in little China. Which just made me think it looks like. Wouldn't it be amazing to ticket to do that one. We will kind of remember that feeling of like seeing that terminates on the big screens in Halloween movies on the big screen that John -- soundtrack just. You know feeding this crazy imagination that these films you know fueled. I don't know that John Carpenter -- there's a big influence that you know and and Steve Moore -- -- You know real kind of electric genius. -- it was very very heavily heavily influenced by by teleconference -- and I think it's it's true that he owns. Every since the size of that was used on the soundtrack of Halloween three. And the Indians no equipment that's -- -- 1990. So with the sounds that he's producing unit and not -- -- of pirating and I think than just you know he's able to make them and I don't know I think he just. We tried to capture some of that fund that those movies thirty man field -- you got it to me in. -- I think I think you sit there and you're don't know where it's going right is always a great feeling in movies especially -- you know keeps you engaged I think and and as -- -- audience member I certainly. I loved that sense of you know. Asking questions to we didn't we like this kind of you know like this guy and we sort of who is this soldier that -- -- -- stage twelve that's the question isn't a man adds that many -- -- -- -- -- Mexico right -- He says is that special ops soldier I mean what we do is he's a special -- He claims he was a friend of -- this is gonna -- And goes to visit his family. In the middle of the New Mexico desert. And office to help them -- You know he immigration system and and it's very charming man and he does help them -- he helps -- around the house. Helps -- with a few life issues that they have but his means. Perhaps a little more unorthodox. -- -- Those remedies. There saint there -- increasingly increasingly tuna and and a lot of people start dying. And I think you know having a bit of fumbling with the idea of of parents as news goes into the situation -- -- help. -- -- -- devastation. Which I think that we lithium is -- -- -- domestic level but I think. It's a narrative that we can recognize and as the global political scandal amendment. And I think that was you know that was one of the jokes that we. The well I don't think anybody's feeling it's a joke -- why. Yeah I mean and even when we do and we're laughing we sort of ago. Food right yes and and you know it is one of his films were. I think -- -- quite shall hunt Phelan sent moments and I think. It's a lot funnier than people expect that's going to be and I think cam you know the fact -- people -- laughing it. Different things these days -- -- what used to be considered a horror film. Might nicely -- -- -- very very funny and and by Spencer and I think I'm. You know attitudes have shifted somewhat. And so into a laughing at these trips that we used to find scary or some -- -- now -- just. That is something a little bit -- pool -- about -- -- -- and take and you know with playing with as well it. It's great it's great fun and that should happen exit this this week here is kind of movie wise the -- -- -- The guest comes -- their -- kids and. He had -- walk among the tombstones. Right where I could stay because your plane had a drug traffickers and that you're another kind of rat bastard. Between you put have you gotten alike emails from dame Maggie Smith saying what are you doing. You think you also -- drug traffic I think she does he should be great -- really would do -- You know we've we've federal commitment tombstones in. I think it's it's it's -- about. People's fears and people being you know afraid of the wrong things and I think you know the film is set in 1999 for very specific reason that you know. That year I certainly remember people were. Wildly afraid of him. That Freije eating their children or something in Edmonton and suddenly technical officer apocalypse -- -- befall us I don't indecent character certainly terrified that. Yeah you know this there's. This is sort of a nagging concern. And -- actually you know about that proved to be ridiculous and and perhaps five -- if Erica and the -- here. And it you know people people's attitudes to what they are afraid of I think has shifted. And people's -- sees what they find funny has shifted as you know as we discuss and against its. You know things things have we contend the men had in the loss of lieutenant -- -- Well you're doing a major turning on the head and I could go to. You know the the web series high maintenance we -- -- basically stay at home dad with writer's block. Who cross dresses but I've been in their loan amount their parent I guess there aren't. And this was just -- to me by by -- friend. Actress Molly Kemp who was in the Harris actually sent me a link -- I think you'll like. I think you'll like these guys and they've been coming for a final episodes and a point. And I don't know why but I guess it -- -- is putting new you'll come being here and until very very inspired in this city and you living in -- that -- -- Brooklyn and time. I felt I -- to live. Energized to to write an email to the it to the creates is spent in -- And and to submit you'll clearly improved and you're doing this wonderful work on just minutes I'm in a very excited by what you're doing and I'm looking to do you. Something different can -- -- we can we -- -- and we connected and you know me. Became friends I think most importantly in and from that came you know the kind of -- that -- Chan. And and then you know they presented me with the idea for this episode Rachel is cross dressing -- and you know and I think they knew they knew when they sent it to me that I was gonna say yes in it was just intriguing enough I tell -- well -- Of course you come from you went Cambridge. This is you've done Shakespeare and -- the classics. Some of them some of some of the still some left a law there's. Yes decades later you'll do the year and it will come to us -- and related -- to rescue three people most of which rolls which you did you have to play and them. -- the rule quite old -- The -- Walt Whitman one thing I'm -- accident but it may be forced to use though that's really good except. What I see in your eyes and what I see in some things have seen them there's mischief again. I just focus I recently well I've had a lot of your colleagues Benedict -- batches from here -- -- -- -- and know that. There both. Certifiable and made -- get us. But in an award that you recently presented to to -- to -- yes you and it seemed you know varying. Important and prestigious and you said that he's -- And looks like a startled -- now if that show the deficit US French. -- and love it. I've -- amenity for many year many and that we are great friends and I'm on a huge admirer of his and I think it's important when you get -- that with ceremonies like that especially such prestigious ones as the GQ awards which Tony Blair is presented with. Philanthropist of the year and Kim Kardashian -- Woman of the Year event of the decision I'm trying to make those to you reference. And and so that's really when I was trying to do and temples and not let him get away with anything really I think it would rule. You know fellow British taxes very much in order of Benedict and that ten I have to entities and of course and is Tom Huddleston part of the same well he was referenced in the speech tellem yes something about -- written an impression -- and they do they have -- sensitive. A -- a feud between them that. That they've gone on various talk shows and boast an island written and I think you know there's a bit of -- old guy who wouldn't -- you around it's terrible you don't now it's really no good. I still think there's -- -- written in the somewhere publicly West Virginia it's business as you leaving you yet yeah. You also write or -- helped form a literary journal called the job. That's right -- in which I read a story recently by you in which there was a line about somebody hijacking because it was selling and that. Hijacking your deepest inner -- feelings for frivolous purpose right she might accuse me -- doing that. Bright is that what you're doing we have to get like the my documents -- listening to the last question is always is some people panic. Benedict comebacks in panic -- who stepped OK so that means I'm definitely gonna put it means that everybody is asked to sting a little bit of something that's in the next you can't. They will get so angry if you do it if he's saying now -- if icing I you can't I think -- could -- this -- thing that's in your head in the only needs to be this time. This tiny yet I just really small but it something musical -- that's not to let us just the Valdosta that's trying to do thoughtfully equipped to notice that song here. And it that was -- Now to notice just constantly -- it is going to be limited and and can you do around Richmond. Not. Parent and singing those two minutes I'm an utter failure here it's just I don't know what to say yes but what Hillary Clinton and I'll bring your song next time. Would you have been working on the treatment and be a little bit of views on that you have to -- to and hold you to catch yet. But if -- an obstacle to fix it.

Verdict
Mainstream audiences may find this too oddball to appreciate as a straight thriller. But tune into its strange frequency and there is much to enjoy — perhaps even adore.

The teaser trailer for the film (59 seconds) was released by Dailymotion.com on the 27/06/14 over 3 months before the film was due to premiere. I find the trailer effective as it is a short trailer typcial of a teaser trailer and builds up to a climax but does not show too much about the story line/plot of the film. However it entices the viewer to watch the film and builds up to the release of the offical trailer which is usually twice as long and gives more information about the film
