FILTH Red Band Trailer
The Filth Red Band Trailer features sex, drugs and rock, violence and is definitely NSFW. Written and directed by Jon S Baird the film is based on the bestselling novel by Irving Welsh (Trainspotting). The cast includes James McAvoy, Jamie Bell, Jim Broadbent, Eddie Marsan, Joanne Froggatt, and Imogen Poots.
Filth Official Synopsis:
Scheming Bruce Robertson (James McAvoy), a bigoted and corrupt policeman, is in line for a promotion and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Enlisted to solve a brutal murder and threatened by the aspirations of his colleagues, including Ray Lennox (Jamie Bell), Bruce sets about ensuring their ruin, right under the nose of unwitting Chief Inspector Toal. As he turns his colleagues against one another by stealing their wives and exposing their secrets, Bruce starts to lose himself in a web of deceit that he can no longer control. His past is slowly catching up with him, and a missing wife, a crippling drug habit and suspicious colleagues start to take their toll on his sanity. The question is: can he keep his grip on reality long enough to disentangle himself from the filth?
Filth has a slightly similar vibe to Bad Lieutenant, but is much lighter fare. This dark comedy also reminds me a lot of Welsh’s Trainspotting, which I love. An official release date has not been announced, but we’ll keep you posted.
