Watch UK Trailer For Apocalyptic Film How I Live Now
Whatever you think of her choice of films is another matter but you can’t deny the versatility most of all talent of Saoirse Ronan.For her latest film How I Live Now she turns from teenage vampire to a audacious teen without a country, watch UK Trailer.
Directed by Last King Of Scotland director Kevin McDonald, How I Live Now tells the tale of Daisy (Ronan) an American teen forced to go to UK to stay with her relatives not for a happy holiday but a small matter of World War 3. At first Daisy struggles to adapt to her new surroundings, so just when things start to look up for her war arrives on the doorstep of her Idyllic surroundings. Refusing to budge to the enemy soldiers demands she is split up and separated from her friends Daisy is struggling however she becomes determined to reunite.
Based on the best-selling prize-winning novel of the same name by Meg Rosoff How I live Now sounds a powerful dark and director McDonald doesn’t seem to shy away from the gritty moments either. He seems to capture a more intimate which keeps the film grounded but not loosing the feel of a Post Apocalyptic film. Ronan’s character is not your average heroine but an average girl thrown into an extraordinary situation and this is probably where the Hunger Games similarities come from most of all stop at too.
How I Live Now will be released in UK&Ireland 4th October.
