Additional InformationDirector Clint Eastwood delves into the mysterious world of the hereafter with this ensemble supernatural drama starring Matt Damon, Cecile De France, Jay Mohr, and Bryce Dallas Howard. In the wake of a near-death experience during a powerful tsunami, French television reporter Marie (De France) takes her married lover's advice to pen the political book she has always talked about writing. As hard as Marie tries to stay focused on the task at hand, however, she repeatedly finds her attention diverted to scientists who have been stigmatized for investigating the afterlife. Meanwhile, in America, reluctant psychic George (Matt Damon) struggles in vain to cease using his powers for profit while falling for a gorgeous stranger (Bryce Dallas Howard). All the while, his greedy brother (Jay Mohr) prods him to milk his ability for all it's worth. Over in London, a pair of inseparable twins is forcibly parted by tragedy when one of them dies suddenly. The harder the more introverted surviving twin (Frankie McLaren) attempts to reach out to his deceased brother in the afterlife, the deeper his mom sinks into heroin addiction. When his mother goes into rehab, the grieving boy is placed in foster care, and begins succumbing to his corrosive ennui.
ReviewsLos Angeles Times - [I]n today's climate only a filmmaker like Eastwood, determined to never do the same thing twice, would have the nerve and the clout to take on [a film exploring these kinds of issues]., New York Times - [Hereafter] has the power to haunt the sceptical, to mystify the credulous and to fascinate everyone in between., Chicago-Sun Times - Clint Eastwood's Hereafter considers the idea of an afterlife with tenderness, beauty and a gentle tact., Variety - An uneven but absorbing triptych of stories concerning the bonds between the living and the dead.
