Just added: Director Michael Steinberg will join us IN PERSON, schedule permitting, to discuss!
A taut De Palma-esque psychological thriller, Wicked exposes the dark dysfunctional underbelly of an outwardly perfect affluent suburbia. Julia Stiles plays your typical teen Ellie Christianson – concerned with boys, school and family. But when her mom is ruthlessly murdered, it unleashes her inner bad girl and she slowly starts to take over wifely duties with good old dad. It’s a dark, stylish nightmare full of winding plot twists from Bodies, Rest & Motion director Michael Steinberg.
“Stiles gives a smoldering performance” – Michael Hogan, Vanity Fair
“It was my first lead role, it was pretty exciting. It was the first time I got to go to California. I didn’t really start working regularly until a few years later, so it was like this fun project I got to work on, and then I went back to high school and life was pretty much the same.” – Julia Stiles
