Seventeen-year-old Hallam Foe (Jamie Bell) is a troubled lad. Clad in warpaint and animal furs, he prowls around his family's enormous Scottish estate, spying on his dad and his glamorous stepmother (Claire Forlani), whom he suspects of murdering his mum three years before. When he runs away to Edinburgh, he finds a new stalking subject who proves a Freudian nightmare in more ways than one, forcing him to confront the full extent of his own creepiness. Mister Foe is one of those rare movies whose vacillation in tone serves, rather than detracts from, its storyline. Strange and surprising, its angst actually takes you somewhere.
