You Should Have Left (2020)

Watch enough haunted house movies and you’ll see the pitfalls every director should be able to avoid but fails to. When you realize You Should Have Left addresses the issues we’ve been complaining about for years, you get excited. Too bad the film can’t keep up that momentum.

Theo Conroy (Kevin Bacon) and his much younger wife, Susanna (Amanda Seyfried), decide to go on vacation in Wales with their daughter Ella (Avery Essex). The house they’ve chosen is beautiful and spacious. Too spacious, perhaps. It seems every time Theo takes a walk around, he discovers new doors, new corridors, new rooms that weren’t there before.

The film’s biggest issue comes right at the beginning and then disappears. One of the first scenes is a nightmare in which Ella encounters a stranger. Your instinct about that stranger is correct, which means you’ve figured out a big surprise at the end. If they had cast anyone else in that role, it wouldn’t have been a problem. It’s a shame but on the upside, it gets better - way better from there.

In many ways, You Should Have Left does the haunted house thing right. Firstly, there are few characters so we get to know and care about them. Theo is too old to be married to Susanna and he knows it. Her career and his past are putting a strain on their relationship, which is distracting them from the bizarre goings-on in the house. In many of these kinds of stories, the supernatural phenomena are so extreme no one in their right mind could ignore them. Here, it’s just right. Things are weird but it’s a new house, most of what Theo is seeing is probably in his dreams, he’s got a lot on his mind. It’s probably nothing.

There’s plenty of effectively creepy stuff happening. The house suddenly opening up new passages, the disorientation of all of these inexplicable, long corridors, that still portrait of the house within the house - I kept looking at it with uncertainty - they give you willies. As you're about to crack, it's another day. The focus is back on the drama between the couple and their daughter. It’s engaging; just enough to put your mind off the house for a little bit. If only that ending was better, more subtle, or uncertain. The value of this story is very much lesser than the sum of its parts.

Amanda Seyfried, Kevin Bacon, and Avery Essex are all great together. The drama between them is good, the house creepy, and the story addresses any potential issues of plausibility this film might’ve had in someone else's hands. Even so, it leaves you lukewarm, at best. I can recommend You Should Have Left to aspiring horror filmmakers who might learn from its mistakes but otherwise, you can do better while at home looking for something to scare you.

You Should Have Left by Daniel Kehlmann #23 of 2022 4 stars . A disquieting novella which explores perspective and perception, and plays with linear space, moving you from the comfortable to the uncomfortable in a startling short amount of time. Assuming time is linear. Space too for that matter… Just read it. .

Kevin Bacon comes back as Theo Conroy, a moneyed retired middle-aged man with a troubled past, in this half-baked psychological horror.

The screenplay, somewhat based on a novella of the same name by Daniel Kehlmann, is focussed more on the relationship between Conroy and his millennial actress wife who he can't really trust. As they, along with their child, move into a modern styled house in the middle of nowhere for a change, time and space become absurd in a tormenting way to Conroy.

However, the horror elements, including the temporal loop, seem a little too stale to enjoy. The plot becomes obvious when Conroy's doubtful past is introduced. What one's left to know is whether it's the house or Conroy's unsettling imagination that harrows the family. To a seasoned fan of this genre, You Should Have Left is quite a disappointment.

The Weekend Warrior Home & Drive-In Edition June 19, 2020 – YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT, BABYTEETH, MISS JUNETEENTH, 7500 and More

We’re three weekends into June and New York City is still in Phase 1 of reopening (movie theaters will presumably be in Phase 4), but I’m already hearing that movie theaters will continue to reopen over the next few weeks with New York and L.A. finally opening on July 17, which is when we’re supposed to get some new theatrical releases. We’ll see if that happens or not.

In any other week, the Blumhouse psychological thriller YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT (Universal), which reunites Stir of Echoes director David Koepp with that film’s star, Kevin Bacon, would be getting some sort of theatrical release, probably in 2,500 theaters or maybe more. Instead, it’s going to the same PVOD platform used by Universal for Trolls World Tour and last week’s The King of Staten Island, which is kind of shame. Not that I can say whether I liked the movie or not since I’m under embargo, but I can at least say what the movie is about, kinda.

Bacon and his significantly younger actress wife, played by significantly younger actor Amanda Seyfried, move into a house in Wales with their young daughter Ella (Avery Essex), and then all sorts of strange things start happening… and that’s probably all I can say about the plot without spoiling stuff, although I will say that if you like high concept mind fuck movies, as I generally do, this is a doozy!  [I’ll add my mini-review for this here once the embargo breaks on Thursday morning, and also I’ll have an interview with writer/director David Koepp over at VitalThrills.com around the same time.)

Mini-Review: When you come into a movie like You Should Have Left after having seen David Koepp’s previous movie Stir of Echoes with Kevin Bacon, you might imagine that would have been a tough act to follow. In fact, Stir of Echoes, while it still has some cool ideas,  hasn’t aged particularly well, especially when you realize that it opened just a month after M. Night Shyamalan’s The Sixth Sense. As it were, You Should Have Left has a few similarities beyond Mr. Bacon, but it’s also a very different movie that benefits from fitting into the mold of some of the better recent Blumhouse movies.

In this one, Bacon plays Theo Conroy, a man with a troubled past an an extremely attractive and significantly younger wife, aptly played by Amanda Seyfried. There are already problems in their marriage when we meet them, but soon afterwards, they’re renting a house in a remote part of Wales in order to get away with their young daughter (Avery Essex). Conroy is still being haunted by the death of his previous wife, for which he was blamed but this new abode starts giving him horrifying nightmares as well as odd circumstances with the house having all sorts of nooks and crannies that should not be geographically possible. (I’m trying to be vague as possible with the plot since there are definitely some nice plot twists and definite spoilers.)

It’s a fairly simple set-up as we watch things get worse and worse for Theo as he discovers that his wife has been cheating, and the house starts getting more threatening with Theo worrying even more about his daughter. But this isn’t a cheesy horror movie like House, and maybe at times, it couldn’t even really be thought of as quote-unquote “horror,” because it isn’t particularly scary until the third act when it does start getting VERY scary.

Of course, Bacon’s performance is going to be something eyed carefully to see how he’s grown as an actor in the 21 years since Stir of Echoes, and he certainly has, but it’s often his youngest co-star, Avery Essex, who not only steals the scenes but also pushes him to even greater heights with her own ability to keep things grounded and real even when things start getting crazier.

You Should Have Left is another fine Koepp chiller that frequently leaves you guessing about what is happening with its suitably claustrophobic mind-fuck esthetics and another well-nuanced performance by Bacon. It’s eerie and disturbing but also has an epilogue that somehow comes across as surprisingly sweet and even somewhat sentimental.

Rating: 7/10

Fresh from its much-lauded premiere at Sundance comes Shannon Murphy’s directorial debut, the quirky Aussie comedy BABYTEETH (IFC Films), which stars newcomer Eliza Scanlen as Milla Finlay, a teen girl with a disease that’s killing her, who falls for a drug dealer named Moses (Toby Wallace). Ben Mendelsohn and Essie Davis from The Babadook plays Milla’s disapproving parents, lecherous psychiatrist Henry and manic-depressive Anna.

Apparently, Murphy’s movie is based on a play written by Rita Kalnejai, which played a sold-out run in Sydney back in 2012, and while there are elements that make it seem obvious it’s based on a play, what Murphy has done with the material takes it far beyond its source material. I especially enjoyed the way it deals with young first love in a fairly sweet way but also in a very realistic way.

At first, Babyteeth is a little strange, maybe not quite on the level of strange of some of Miranda July’s work or the movie Lemon (which I hated) in that it’s actually watchable, but more like Taika Waititi’s Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Incidentally, all of those films premiered at Sundance just to give you some sense of the programming there, but it also reminds me more positively of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, which not only premiered at Sundance but won both the Jury and Audience Award that year, so yeah, Sundance is nothing if it’s not a little predicable.

Eliza Scanlen and Toby Wallace are both great, but it’s all the quirky characters surrounding them that makes you unsure where it’s all going, but don’t be fooled by the film’s earlier quirkiness, because it does go to a few rather dark and dramatic places. Again, I liked it in a similar way as I liked Earl, and it’s a really strong directorial debut with fantastic musical choices, and I’ll be really curious to see whether people discover it right away or it becomes a cult favorite over time.

Channing Godfrey People’s new indie drama MISS JUNETEENTH (Vertical), starring Nicole Beharie, is probably one of the more relevant releases of the weekend because Friday is the annual Juneteenth celebration. Beharie plays Turquoise Jones, a woman who won the town’s annual Miss Juneteenth pageant decades earlier who now has a teen daughter Kai (Alexis Chikaeze) entered in the pageant.

I will freely admit that a few weeks back, I had no idea what Juneteenth was or what it represented, although I kept seeing it listed in my ICal every June 19. Then I heard about this movie and shortly after, I saw it referenced in Ava DuVernay’s Selma on a recent rewatch, so I looked it up – thinking maybe it was more of a Southern thing, which it is – and sure enough, it’s the date when Texas abolished slavery in 1965. I’m so glad that was settled.

Okay, back to the movie. I definitely was interested in it since like Babyteeth, Miss Juneteenth debuted at Sundance, but as expected for a festival mainly attended by critics from New York and L.A., it didn’t get very much attention, so it was probably always going to get a VOD release.

It mainly follows how Beharie’s character comes to term with not achieving some of the greatness of past Miss Juneteenth winners and hoping her daughter will achieve more than she did by winning the pageant.  Kai really isn’t too interested in achieving greatness in the way her mother wants, as she would rather be a dancer. (Since it’s implied that Turquoise spent many years making money by stripping, it would make sense she wouldn’t that for her daughter.)

I kind of wish the movie did more interesting things with the characters but People’s screenplay is decent but not great, and it’s elevated by the talented Ms. Beharie and others. The interesting thing about Miss Juneteenth is that not only did the movie grow on me as I watched it, but it also oddly really stuck with me after it was over, even though it’s more of an intimate personal story about one woman rather than a bigger exploration of the holiday itself.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt makes his return to the screen (just not the big one) in Patrick Vollrath’s action-thriller, 7500 (Amazon Prime), playing the co-pilot of a German plane that’s hijacked by terrorists. I wish there was more to say about it beyond that simple plot, but there really isn’t, and the majority of the film takes place in the cockpit as Gordon-Levitt’s Tobias Ellis watches other activities taking places on monitor screens.

I’ve always been a fan of Gordon-Levitt as an actor but this material generally seems below his talents, and his performance falters suitably while trying to make more of what’s a fairly dated and tired script. On top of that, it’s just brutal to watch at times, and that’s not necessarily a good thing, despite the film’s intent at being a thriller. (One plot decision pissed me off so much I almost stopped watching.)

Honestly, I’m not even sure why they called this movie 7500, since there was already a horror movie called Flight 7500 a few years back, and that isn’t even the number of the flight in the movie, so this whole thing left me rather puzzled, not only how and why it got made but why it couldn’t have been even just slightly better.

Netflix got the rights to Olivier Assayas’ latest, WASP NETWORK after it played a bunch of festivals last fall, including TIFF, Venice and the New York Film Festival, and the streamer will premiere the spy-thriller starting Friday. It reunites Assayas with his Carlos star Edgar Ramírez, who plays René González, a Cuban pilot who flees Cuba to defect to the United States, leaving his wife (Knives Out’s Ana de Armas) and daughter behind. Once in Florida, he joins a group of exiles called the Wasp Network, led by undercover operative Manuel Viramontez (Gael Garcia Bernal) and becomes part of a pro-Castro spy ring infiltrating Cuban-American terrorist groups. I wasn’t hugely interested in the subject matter when I tried watching it at the NY Film Festival, and part of that was maybe because like Carlos, it requires a lot of patience and concentration that I’m sure I didn’t have last October. I hope to have a chance to rewatch it this week, and if I get all the way through it, I’ll add some sort of actual review.

Ross Boyask’s action-thriller sequel I AM VENGEANCE: RETALIATON (Saban Films/Lionsgate), once again stars former WWE wrestler Stu Bennett aka “Wade Barrett” as ex special forces John Gold who goes for justice (and vengeance and retaliation, if that wasn’t clear from the title) against the man who betrayed his team on their final mission, Sean Teague, as played by Guy Ritchie regular, Vinnie Jones. Haven’t had a chance to watch this in time to write about it for the column, but I also never got to watch the previous I Am Vengeance, but hopefully I’ll have more time before its digital debut on Friday.

Another film opening in Virtual Cinema (which is definitely the “new normal” these days) is Yonatan Nir and Dani Menkin’s documentary PICTURE OF HIS LIFE about acclaimed underwater wildlife photographer Amos Nachoum and his greatest challenge to photograph a polar bear while swimming with one in open waters sans protection. Another movie I wasn’t able to get to before writing this column – noticing a trend there? -- but it certainly sounds interesting, especially if the cinematography is as good as I’m expecting from watching the trailer.

I will freely admit that I’ve been a bit hit or miss on the recent work of multi-Oscar-nominee Agnieszka Holland and her more recent work, and her new film MR. JONES (Samuel Goldwyn) is another drama set during WWII as with her previous film, In Darkness. Thus one is written by Andrea Chalupa and stars James Norton as Gareth Jones, an ambitious journalist who goes to Moscow looking for the truth behind Stalin’s Soviet propaganda machine that is trying to sway the Western World in its battle against Hitler.  Apparently, this would later inspire George Orwell’s Animal Farm, but honestly, this subject didn’t really interesting me, and neither could the presence of decent actors like Peter Sarsgaard and Vanessa Kirby. Either way, it will be released on digital this Friday then On Demand on July 3.

I’ve heard good things but haven’t had a chance to see Theodore Collatos and Carolina Monnerat’s documentary, Queen of Lapa (Factory 25), which is about influential Brazilian transgender activist Luana Muniz, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 31st edition of New Fest, New York’s LGBTQ Film Festival, as well as a selection of a number of other film festivals.  Muniz was a cabaret performer, sex worker and activist who helped humanize Rio’s transgender sex workers.

Related to this, Netflix will also debut Sam Feder’s doc Disclosure this week, looking at the way trangender men and women have been depicted in film and on television with leading trans creatives and thinkers like Laverne Cox, Lilly Wachowski, Yance Ford and others being interviewed. I haven’t watched it yet but will check it out when it debuts this Friday.

Hong Sang Soo’s 2006 film Woman on the Beach (Grasshopper Films) is premiering as part of Film at Lincoln Center’s Virtual cinema, which is actually one of my favorite films by the director.

Downtown at the Film Forum’s Virtual Cinema, you can watch Matt Riddlehoover’s doc My Darling Vivian (The Film Collaborative) about the relationship between Vivian Liberto and one Johnny Cash, who had a three-year long-distance relationship while the classic country singer was stationed in Germany and got married when he returned and became a household name.

This week’s rep stuff being added to Film Forum’s Virtual Cinema include Robert Hamer’s original 1960 comedy, School of Scoundrels (Film Forum/ Virtual), starring Alastair Sim – part of the trilogy of Sim films which will be available for rental through Film Forum -- and Jean-Pierre Melville’s 1953 noir, When You Read This Letter… 

Apple Plus will be debuting Bryce Dallas Howard’s documentary Dads (just in time for Father’s Day!), which looks at fatherhood through a number of well-known fathers including Will Smith and one Ron Howard.

Other films that I haven’t had as much time to look into include Mope (Quiver Distribution) and  The Pollinators (1091).

This week begins two more annual festivals, both of them going virtually with the  AFI Docs Film Festival (done in conjunction with NBC’s “Meet the Press”) running from June 17 through June 21 and the Lighthouse International Film Festival, based in New Jersey, which will run from June 16 to 20. The latter’s opening film is Rod Lurie’s military drama The Outpost, which I’ve been looking forward to seeing for quite some time, while the Centerpiece film is Summerland. This week’s Oxford Film Festival offerings include the narrative feature, The Killing of Kenneth Chamberlain, will debut on Sunday. Unfortunately, you’ll have to live in Mississippi, Tennessee or Alabama to see the The Rabbi Goes West, presented by the Jewish Federation of Oxford.

Next week, more movies not in nearly as many theaters as usual… including (finally!) My Spy!!!

By the way, if you read this week’s column and have bothered to read this far down, feel free to drop me some thoughts at Edward dot Douglas at Gmail dot Com or drop me a note or tweet on Twitter. I love hearing from readers … honest!

First look at You Should Have Left

A new trailer has been released for You Should Have Left, which is set to release June 19, 2020.

Theo Conroy (Bacon) is a successful middle-aged man whose marriage to his much younger actress wife, Susanna (Seyfried) is shredding at the seams, frayed by her secretiveness, his jealousy, and the shadow of his past.

In an effort to repair their relationship, Theo and Susanna book a vacation at a stunning, remote modern home in the Welsh countryside for themselves and their six-year-old daughter, Ella (Avery Essex). What at first seems like a perfect retreat distorts into a perfect nightmare when Theo’s grasp on reality begins to unravel and he suspects that a sinister force within the house knows more than he or Susanna have revealed, even to each other.
