Dias Selvagens
Elderly Man on Bus
A partir do fim do relacionamento de John (Cillian Murphy) e Deirdre (Kelly Macdonald), o filme avança misturando amor, roubo a banco, sequestro e vingança. Surpreendente e imprevisível, "Dias Selvagens" foge do lugar comum e conquista o espectador por sua originalidade. Investigando o poder que cada um tem em interferir na vida dos outros, o filme é um passatempo inventivo e inquieto, qualidades que não costumam caminhar juntas.
