At the 81st Venice International Film Festival, Justin Kurzel presents, in competition, “The Order“. With Jude Law as lead actor and co-producer, the film is based on the book The Silent Brotherhood by Kevin Flynn and Gary Gerhardt, a chronicle of the rapid rise and fall of a group of disaffected young white men. Producer Bryan Haas and screenwriter Zach Baylin came across this provocative story and got inspired by a real-life terror plot led by Robert Jay “Bob” Mathews, a longtime member of the neo- Nazi group Aryan Nations. Justin Kurzel, who had impressed the producing team pair with his talent for visual storytelling in the 2021 Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or nominee “Nitram“, was asked to direct after a conversation with lead actor and producer Jude Law. The director points out that, even though it is a film that follows the rules of the thriller genre, “family is the theme that plays through all the characters”.   The post “The order”, interview with director Justin Kurzel and screenwriter Zach Baylin appeared first on Fred Film Radio.
