We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves

One sentence synopsis... A thoughtful portrait of the fallout a family experience after a child/chimpanzee study they're participants in is prematurely aborted. .

Read it if you liked... ‘Okja', man-of-the-moment Bong Joon-Ho's film about animal cruelty ft. the Animal Liberation Front. .

Dream casting... Four years ago this was supposed to be a miniseries starring Natalie Portman... nothing seems to have come from that but she'd be a great Rosemary Cooke. Obviously having an actual chimpanzee in the film would be a slap in the face to the subject matter of the book so maybe they're just waiting for the CGI technology to catch up.
