The Stranglers - Norfolk Coast
SYNOPSIS
Norfolk Coast features Jean Jacques Burnel of The Stranglers in his first main screen role as Warner. Left by his wife Wendy (Lynsey Baxter), Warner struggles to come to terms with her subsequent suicide. He returns to his native Norfolk where he tries to rationalise his memories of a childhood torn apart by incest and an adherence to a strange cult. He turns to his older cousin Linda, played by acclaimed Academy Award nominated actress Susannah York, for help and advice but instead seeks his own way out through confronting his father, Tucker (Nicholas Ball). All the conflicting strands in his life begin to unwind and we are left with a question mark hanging over what is the true reality of Warner's situation. Strangely atmospheric, reminiscent of movies like the Wicker Man and even Performance, the film blends landscape and a nightmarish take on family life to produce an unsettling and haunting picture.
