Wristcutters: A Love Story
- Director: Goran Dukic
- Starring: Patrick Fugit
- Details: US / 92mins (TBC)
PREVIEW
Set in a strange afterlife way-station that has been reserved for people who have committed suicide, Wristcutters marks the debut feature from director Goran Dukic, who has been praised by critics for injecting humour into a strange and ostensibly bleak setup. Starring the genuinely Almost Famous Patrick Fugit and Shannyn Sossamon as the titular 'wristcutters' who meet in a purgatory-like place, and partake in an altogether unlikely love story, this film takes an apparently much more whimsical tone than you'd think.
