DogMan
DogMan | Luc Besson | FR/US 2023 | 113 Min
| DCP
Whether dogs really are people’s best friends is still up for debate. But for Douglas, one thing’s been clear since his violence- and abuse-riddled childhood: He trusts canines more than his fellow humans. Now a grown-up, he is the alpha of the pack he trained to protect him, steal for him, kill for him. DogMan is a visually extravagant love letter to outsiders and misfits, shot by master director Luc Besson as a dark and shocking thriller in which Caleb Landry Jones proves yet again that he is one of the most fearless and powerful actors of his generation.
