ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Based on the play by David Lindsay-Abaire and Directed by John Cameron Mitchell (HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH, HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES) RABBIT HOLE follows a happy couple, whose life is upended after their young son dies in an accident. Starring Aaron Eckhart (THE DARK KNIGHT, THANK YOU FOR SMOKING) and a transformative Nicole Kidman (THE HOURS, MOULIN ROUGE), who earned Oscar, Golden Globe and Film Independent Spirit Award nominations for her performance. Rolling Stone raves, "Kidman, doing her best work in years, just comes at you. Her final scene with the splendid Wiest, who builds her character with uncommon feeling, is devastating. So is the movie. It takes a piece out of you."

SYNOPSIS

Eight months after the accidental death of their 4-year-old son, Howie (Aaron Eckhart) and Becca (Nicole Kidman) are trying to overcome their grief. He wants to hold on to everything that reminds him of Danny, while she would rather sell their home and make a fresh start. Cracks begin to appear in the relationship as Howie bonds with a member of his therapy group and Becca reaches out to a teenage boy with telling facial scars.
