The Electrical Life Of Louis Wain

Benedict Cumberbatch and Claire Foy star in the extraordinary true story of eccentric British artist Louis Wain, whose playful, sometimes even psychedelic pictures helped to transform the public's perception of cats forever. Moving from the late 1800s through to the 1930s, the film reveals the incredible adventures of this inspiring, unsung hero as he seeks to unlock the "electrical" mysteries of the world and better understand his own life and the profound love he shares with his wife Emily. The new film from the BAFTA-winning director of Channel 4's Flowers also boasts an all-star ensemble support cast that includes Andrea Riseborough, Toby Jones, Hayley Squires, Taika Waititi, Nick Cave, and Olivia Colman.
