One of the things I love the most about the movies is when actors are given the chance to reinvent themselves and really show off their talent, see the likes of Bradley Cooper and Channing Tatum recently as great examples. In fairness to Jennifer Aniston, she did a great job in 2002’s THE GOOD GIRL (which also starred a young Jake Gyllenhaal) and she looks to be onto a winner with this new one; CAKE.
The film takes us into the dark, yet funny, world of Claire Bennett (Jennifer Aniston) who initiates a dubious relationship with a widower (Sam Worthington) while confronting fantastical hallucinations of his dead wife (Anna Kendrick). The trailer here gives us that perfect indie vibe and I’m eager to see it.
Watch for yourself now and let us know what you think by scrolling down below the new stills:
CAKE opens in the UK on 20th February.
