The new film Bad Behaviour starring Jennifer Connelly and Ben Whishaw has set a debut date of 4th December in the UK. The premiere comes a full month before the film’s main cinema release, which is the 5th of January.
Lucy (Connelly), a former child actress, seeks healing from the traumas of her life. She embarks on a spiritual retreat, only for it to become anything but healing: she’s easily annoyed by the other attendees and wants attention from the retreat’s new-age guru Elon Bello (Whishaw). Even worse, she has become destructively obsessed with the retreat’s celebrity guest, a model named Beverly (Dasha Nekrasova, Succession). As Beverly finds “enlightenment” easily, Lucy’s feelings of insecurity continue to rise to the surface.
During this time, Lucy also tries to connect with her stunt performer adult daughter, Dylan (Englert) who’s currently on set in New Zealand. Dylan’s falling into an obsession of her own: a bad romance with the main actor Elmore, whose insistence on doing his own stunts will have disastrous consequences. Brutal incidents in both women’s worlds force them back together to confront their personal demons and their own relationship.
The premiered at last year’s Sundance Film Festival with Alice Englert (The Power of the Dog, Dangerous Liaisons) making her directorial debut.
