Barry Keoghan, Christopher Abbott & Director Chris Andrews Discuss Bring Them Down & Wolf Man
First-time feature director and co-writer Chris Andrews came out swinging at the Toronto International Film Festival with the world premiere of Bring Them Down. The Irish “mafia-esque“ drama stars Oscar-nominee Barry Keoghan and Christopher Abbott as two warring families set against a cold, pastoral mountainside. This “violent and brutal“ debut is packed with talent in a quiet, simmering allegory for the ruthlessness of war.
In Bring Them Down, Michael (Abbott) tends his family’s sheep farm for his disabled father, played by Colm Meaney. Harboring guilt for the death of his mother and a secret, Michael lives an isolated life, keeping mostly to his prized flock. When two of his rams are found in his rival’s sheep, however, the relentless tension with the neighboring family, Gary (Paul Ready) and his volatile son Jack (Keoghan), sets them all on a perilous path.
Celebrating their premiere, Andrews, Keoghan, and Abbott stop by Collider’s media studio at the Cinema Center at MARBL to chat with Steve Weintraub about their quiet thriller. Bring Them Down has little dialogue, but the sparse chatter allows for an “animalistic“ performance from Keoghan, and draws from Andrews’ own stillness. What the movie lacks in conversation (in a good way), it trades for violence and unexpected twists, prompting Abbott to compare the relationships to an Irish mafia of sorts.
For more on the film, check out the interview in the video above, or you can read the full transcript below. Keoghan and Abbot also share tidbits on upcoming projects like Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part 2, Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man, the Peaky Blinders movie, and Kraven the Hunter.
