What could draw Daniel Day-Lewis out of retirement? His son Ronan directing the script they co-wrote may have helped, but it\u2019s surely the chance to get his teeth into this dark drama\u2019s meaty, traumatic monologues that did the trick. Sean Bean holds his own against the triple Oscar winner as Jem, who heads into remote woods to find his ex-soldier brother Ray (Day-Lewis), a brooding, off-the-grid figure who abandoned his partner (Samantha Morton) and unborn son 20 years ago. A stormy tale of violence, fear and generational pain.
