These men are supposed to be similar in body language and appearance, not only so Henry will open up to Mark but to make the detective’s journey into the dark side more terrifying. The craft elements of “The Stranger” are enabled by the character work of Edgerton and Harris, who very purposefully share a mumbling beard aesthetic. Oliver Coates’ score also works to alter our perception of the crime drama elements, making the whole thing more like a waking nightmare than an episode of “Criminal Minds.” There are startling jump cuts and dream sequences that get under your skin, conveying how befriending a child killer could destroy someone from within. Working with editor Simon Njoo, Wright assembles a film that’s largely straightforward but cut together in a way that makes it more unsettling. Wright, who also wrote the film based on the book The Sting: The Undercover Operation That Caught Daniel Morcombe’s Killer, deftly moves back and forth between the growing connection between Henry & Mark and the other aspects of the investigation by Mark’s colleagues, including an effective Jada Alberts as the lead detective. (It’s also worth noting that a confession obtained this way is legal in Australia and wouldn’t be in the United States.) It’s a brilliant operation, one that basically places a criminal into an amoral enterprise, relying on the fact that he will be so comfortable within it that he will say or do something that will incriminate him, especially to the criminal higher-ups who will demand to know everything about his background. Mark gets closer to Henry even as it’s revealed that everything that’s happening is really a set-up to trap a man who the authorities are convinced has murdered a child. He keeps asserting that he doesn’t “do violence,” but agrees to meet some mysterious people, including one named Mark Frame ( Joel Edgerton), who is actually an undercover cop. At first, it seems like Henry is about to get involved in a criminal underworld that could get him in serious trouble. It starts with what Henry thinks is a random encounter with a man on a bus who offers him an opportunity. It turns out that Henry is the main suspect in one of the most notorious missing person cases in the history of Australia, and he’s being pulled through the film into a massive sting operation to finally put him away. Mild spoilers will follow, so come back later if you know absolutely nothing about one of the largest undercover operations in the history of Australia, but this is a film that settles early into a procedural investigation of a vicious criminal. Harris plays Henry Teague, a man who the first few scenes set up as the protagonist of this Aussie true story only to then turn the tables. Wright’s taut and effective “The Stranger,” which premiered at Cannes back in May and snuck its way onto Netflix last week with almost zero promotion or fanfare. And he makes great use of that skill set in Thomas M. There’s something haunted about the characters he plays. He swallows some lines in a half-whisper and makes great use of a hollow, vacant stare. Which doesn't make this an altogether bad movie, it just makes it long.Sean Harris has always had a fascinating screen presence, one that’s slightly unstable and unsettling. Director: Wim Wenders (in my opinion) fails to project out to the viewer the misery Thomas Eldan must suffer because Franco really doesn't seem to care. Will there be another tragedy? Will there be revenge? The situation becomes edgy! You will have to watch to see what happens. This is where the story becomes interesting because there is a level of tension and unknown intentions.

Unfortunately the past comes back, only this time as an adult. Eventually he returns to the surface of life and the suffering and guilt seem to have past. And it continues for about 12 years (if I correctly recall). there is a lot of emotional suffering going on here. He suffers, his wife suffers, his career suffers, other people suffer. It's a long haul story of him having to cope with a tragic accident on a very snowy day. James Franco as writer Thomas Eldan is pulling on all of his mystery moody self (as he so expertly did in 'Shadows & Lies') but here in this movie - not so much.

Everything will be fine cast netflix
