Send us Fan MailAndrew and special guest, writer and director Jesse Mendelsohn, take a shot at the bullseye of the stunning and provocative thriller adaptation of We Need To Talk About Kevin from 2011. Directed and co-written by acclaimed Scottish indie filmmaker Lynne Ramsay, this dark, devious, and daring portrait of a tormented mother (Tilda Swinton) and her cantankerous child (Ezra Miller) might just be the best form of birth control ever "conceived!" Andrew and Jesse uncover the film's meaning through such topics as takes on  what the movie is truly about, Ramsay's use of color, Kevin's dismal psychology, common criticisms of the film, the complicated theme of parenthood, the most disturbing moments, and much more.
