    What Richard Did – Official Trailer Released

    The trailer for Lenny Abrahamson film ‘What Richard Did’ has just been revealed. ‘What Richard Did’ gets its theatre released on October 5th and is already getting fantastic words written about it.

    What’s it about? ‘What Richard Did follows Richard Karlsen, golden-boy athlete and undisputed alpha-male of his privileged set of South Dublin teenagers, through the summer between the end of school and the beginning of university. The world is bright and everything seems possible, until in one summer night Richard does something that destroys it all and shatters the lives of the people closest to him. Featuring extraordinary performances from its mainly young cast, What Richard Did is a quietly devastating study of a boy confronting the gap between who he thought he was and who he proves to be.’

    It definitely looks like one not to be missed.
