Jessica Chastain, Josh Charles, Anne Hathaway and Anders Danielsen Lie are the stars of new drama/thriller Mother’s Instinct.

Directed by Benoît Delhomme, at the centre of the story is a tragic accident that leads to guilt, suspicion and paranoia between two women who were once the best of friends.

Based on the title alone, I’m going to guess that Chastain’s character is right. I think that Hathatway’s Celine is the grief-stricken mother who’s lost her mind.

I say all this of course, as someone who has never watched the French film (Derrière la haine (2018) or read the book of the same name by Belgian author Barbara Abel, on which both films are based.

I’m excited to watch two wonderful actors continually raise each other’s game with every word they utter and every look they exchange. Not that either of their games needed raising, mind you.

Are you looking forward to a promising psychological thriller, one of a few among the many blockbusters due to come our way this year?

Caroline Lagerfelt, Alexander Blaise, Keeley Miller, Steve Routman, Lauren Yaffe and Baylen D. Bielitz also star.
