Hanna (2011 Joe Wright)

A slightly bonkers comic book idea from Seth Lochhead (original author) with later writing by David Farr (The Night Manager) as Grimms fairy tale.

Saiorse Ronan, Eric Bana, Cate Blanchett, Tom Hollander,  Jessica Barden, Olivia Williams, Jason Flemyng, Aldo Maland.

Shot by Alwin Kuchler in mainly German locations, edited by Paul Tothill and music from The Chemical Brothers. Scenes involving flashing lights (prison escape, Grimms house) are amazing; Blanchett as wicked step-mother emerging our of mouth of wolf sensational.
