The Gift

On Tuesday, August 25, 2015, I went to see the movie The Gift, featuring Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall and Joel Edgerton.

The movie is about a couple, Simon and Robyn, played by Bateman and Hall respectively, who move into a new house in California.  They go shopping for homewares and they bump into Simon's childhood friend, Gordon, who is referred to is Gordo.  Gordo the Weirdo.  They exchange awkward conversation and phone numbers...

One day, a bottle of wine shows up at their doorstep, which is kind of weird, since Simon and Robyn never gave Gordo their address.  As more gifts show up, Robyn feels bad and invites Gordon to dinner one time when she was home alone and Simon was at work...

However, as these gifts show up, a twist happens and we learn about this past between Gordon and Simon...

What happens?  You'll have to watch the movie to find out...

I didn't know that this movie was directed by Joel Edgerton as well.  I thought that it was very well directed.
