Just started seeing some trailers for this on tv. Anyone heard anything about it?
Billed as "an old-fashioned, beautifully staged and deeply unsettling spooky yarn."
"In the London of 1921, World War One and the flu epidemic have left the bereaved vulnerable to cruel con artists who pretend to be in contact with the 'afterlife'. Florence Cathcart (Rebecca Hall) has made it her mission to expose the fraudsters.When she's called to investigate the sighting of a ghost at a remote boarding school, Florence witnesses something that challenges all her assumptions. 'The Awakening' is a spine-tingling ghost story that relies on atmosphere rather than effects and cheap shocks for its creeping sense of supernatural menace."
Might be a good one. I hope to check it out. UK release is supposed to be the 11th of this month.
