Released in October, this looks like one of the must-see films in the Autumn.

Jack O’Connell is going to be a superstar, anyone who saw ‘Starred Up’ knows it, so we’re particularly excited to see the first film from director Yann Demange.

”71′ sees O’Connell star as a paratrooper left stranded in Belfast at the start of the Troubles, and from what we can tell from the clip it looks like we have a Paul Greengrass-style thriller on our hands.

Count us in.
