Pig - Nicholas Cage |
The new NEON movie stars Nicholas Cage as a man on a mission to get back his beloved truffle-hunting pig.
In a world full of people there is only one Nicolas Cage and he has a new movie called... Pig.
The film is about an isolated man whose cherished truffle pig is swiped in a home invasion.
The emotional devastation leads him on a quest back into civilization in search of his prized swine. While it may be a revenge film it's no vengeance thriller ala John Wick or I Saw the Devil. It's a somber slower Cage rage than audiences are becoming more accustomed to.
It's an evolution of the silence and brooding interlaced between explosive outbursts of emotion and violence in the second half of Mandy-an arthouse revenge horror movie featuring another must-see Nic Cage performance.
Don't miss this strange intimate Porcine Drama that has everything you want in a cinematic experience: delicious food a beautiful mediation on life and Nicolas Cage looking for his kidnapped truffle pig.
Official Trailer: Pig
Reviews: Pig
A million miles from 'Peggy Sue Got Married' Cage goes searching for his beloved truffle pig - and himself - in Michael Sarnoski's intimate character study.
Nicolas Cage isn't just an actor; he's a state of mind. Having transcended meme status with evocative performances in director-driven genre fare like "Mandy" and "Color Out of Space" the Oscar winner delivers his best performance in years as a chef-turned-recluse who briefly reenters society in writer-director Michael Sarnoski's "Pig."
His return isn't a happy one however: Robin (Cage) only leaves the Oregonian wilderness after his beloved truffle pig is violently taken from him. Less revenge thriller than an intimate character study "Pig" is above all else a reminder that Cage is among the most gifted fearless actors working today.
