Good choice of film for in-flight watching, cos it translates well to the seatback screen. Pretty bleak stuff but very emotional and well-told. It’s incredibly fortunate that Brendan Fraser was cast (as he does a stellar job) rather than an earlier choice of James Corden. And I thought it was very coincidental that Hong Chau was in this – I’d never heard of her before, and then she was in this AND the last thing I watched (The Night Agent).
