Lohan plays the role of Caitlin Thomas, wife of Welsh poet Dylan Thomas. Knightley plays the role of Vera Phillips, the childhood friend of Caitlin Thomas.
The story revolves about the strange relationship between the Thomas couple, Vera Phillips and her husband William Killick. Lohan says that there are lesbian undertones to the relationship between Caitlin and Vera but she won’t disclose more. What is confirmed is that it ends up with the real life incident where Vera Phillips and her husband fire at the home of the Thomas’ with a machine gun and hand grenades.What in the world could inspire such anger, fans will just have to wait to find out because the move won’t start production til April next year.
It will definitely be nice to see Lindsey Lohan stretching her wings and see her taking on new challenges. It is about time that she plays roles with more meat to it. She’s more than ready to take them on and show people what she’s got.
The movie will be directed by John Maybury. He was also the director of the Jacket which also starred Keira Knightley.
