Evil Hamsters and the Worst Day of Your Life in the New Film
The new film "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You" brings a comedic nightmare to the big screen, directed by Mary Bronstein and starring Rose Byrne.
Before the film screened at the Toronto International Film Festival, Rose Byrne addressed the audience, explaining that to get in the proper mindset for the film, one must imagine the worst day of their life.
Hold that feeling, she said, and let it carry through the acerbic, tense and hilarious experience that will follow.
Byrne stars as Linda, a mental health counsellor whose life is falling apart. The film opens on an uncomfortable close-up of her face as a doctor chides her for not doing everything she can to help her daughter heal from a mystery illness.
The film freefalls from there, with each turn or scene presenting a new obstacle for Linda to deal with, making for a claustrophobic and uncomfortable experience.
Author's summary: A comedic nightmare film with Rose Byrne.
