Pig
AroView: Nicolas Cage, whose recent work has acquired a sizeable cult following, puts a cap on his patented “rage” to portray a bedraggled truffle hunter who breaks his isolation in the Oregonian wilderness to search for his beloved foraging pig after she is kidnapped.
It’s a critically acclaimed yet peculiar beast that blends existential meditation with black comedy while teetering on the cusp of a conventional revenge thriller set largely in the elite restaurant industry of Portland.
“As a descent into the apparently high-stakes world of truffle-pig-poaching, Pig is unexpectedly touching; as a showcase for Cage’s brilliance, it’s a revelation.” ~Michael Nordine, Variety
