Reilly, Ezra Miller<br \/>\nGenre: Psychological Thriller<br \/>\nMPAA Rating: R (for disturbing violence and behavior, some sexuality and language)<\/p>\n<p>Synopsis: A suspenseful and psychologically gripping exploration into a parent dealing with her child doing the unthinkable, &#8220;We Need to Talk About Kevin&#8221; is told from the perspective of Eva, played by Tilda Swinton in a tour-de-force performance.<\/p>\n<p>Always an ambivalent mother, Eva and Kevin have had a contentious relationship literally from Kevin&#8217;s birth. Kevin (Ezra Miller), now 15-years-old, escalates the stakes when he commits a heinous act, leaving Eva to grapple with her feelings of grief and responsibility, as well as the ire of the community-at-large. &#8220;We Need to Talk About Kevin&#8221; explores nature vs. nurture on a whole new level as Eva&#8217;s own culpability is measured against Kevin&#8217;s innate evilness, while Ramsay&#8217;s masterful storytelling leaves enough moral ambiguity to keep the debate going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trailer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><object
