Miss Julie
1890, Ireland. Over the course of a midsummer night, Julie (Jessica Chastain), the daughter of Anglo-Irish aristocracy, encourages her father's valet John (Colin Farrell) to seduce her. Observed by the disapproving maid Kathleen (Samantha Morton), a cruel game of romance plays out as John, a man trapped in his social station, is torn between lust and love. Based on August Strindberg's acclaimed play and directed by award-winning actor and filmmaker Liv Ullmann, Miss Julie is a playful tale of high-class manipulation and emotional torment in the great romantic tradition of Dangerous Liaisons, The Age of Innocence and The Remains of the Day.
