Starring Rebecca Hall, Jason Bateman and Joel Edgerton (who also directs), The Gift, is a beautifully shot, moody, psychological thriller that is slow burn and pays off great rewards if you wait it out till the end.
The story follows a middle-aged couple (Bateman and Hall) who move into a suburban house, only to come across a long lost acquaintance (Edgerton, playing a typically socially awkward character with heart) at a local store.
But is there more to it than meets the eye?
Edgerton’s character gets deeper and deeper into the couple’s lives, at times in strange, startling ways, and as the movie unfolds we discover the whys.
It’s a great, relatively lesser known film, available for streaming on Prime Video and/or Netflix.
A sure shot recommendation! Enjoy your time streaming!
