A modern-day Clarice Starling, Eleanor (Shailene Woodley) is a young police investigator wrestling with the demons of her past when she is recruited by the FBI’s chief investigator (Ben Mendelsohn) to help profile and track the work of a disturbed individual. As the police and FBI launch a nationwide manhunt, they are thwarted at every turn by the individual’s unprecedented behavior. Given her tortured psyche, Eleanor may be the only person who can understand the mind of their assailant and bring him to justice.
The film stars: Shailene Woodley, Ben Mendelsohn and Jovan Adepo. It’s directed by Damián Szifron and written by Szifron and Jonathan Wakeham.
They are billing it as Clarice Starling, it has more of The Bone Collector vibes to me.
To Catch A Killer opens in theaters April 21st.
