The Gift

DramaMysteryThriller108 min

Simon and Robyn are a young married couple whose life seems firmly on track until a chance run-in reconnects Simon with Gordo, a man from high school he barely acknowledges. Jason Bateman is Simon, all professional ease and buried irritation, while Rebecca Hall's Robyn is increasingly unsettled by Gordo's surprise visits and carefully chosen gifts. Joel Edgerton gives Gordo an outsider's politeness that never quite puts anyone at ease. What begins as awkward social contact starts pulling old grievances into the couple's home.
