I’ve just seen Trance at the Picturehouse, director Danny Boyle’s latest film. Its a gangster thriller about a stolen and then lost painting but the twists and turns of the plot and characterisation are breathtaking and have had H and I trying to work them out the day after seeing it. Casting is perfect with the young corrupt and charming doctor from Last King of Scotland, James McAvoy, playing the charming and corrupt auctioneer’s assistant, Simon. This is a very clever and very thrilling film. You will go away wondering what was ‘real’ and what was hypnotically induced trance. Highly recommended.
