Starring Johnny Depp, John Turturro, Maria Bello
Following a bitter separation from his wife (Maria Bello), famed mystery writer Mort Rainey (Johnny Depp) is unexpectedly confronted at his remote lake house by a dangerous stranger named John Shooter (John Turturro). Claiming Rainey has plagiarized his short story, the psychotic Shooter demands justice in an increasingly violent and unhinged campaign. Stylish direction from acclaimed screenwriter David Koepp (JURASSIC PARK, PANIC ROOM) makes for an intense psychological thrill ride adapted from Stephen King’s self-reflexive novella “Secret Window, Secret Garden.”
