First Look at Saoirse Ronan in Kevin Macdonald's 'How I Live Now'
It comes from
the blog of
Meg Rosoff — author of the book upon which
Macdonald‘s film is based — and shows off the young actress as Daisy, a New York girl whose normal trip to visit family in England is interrupted by a little thing called World War III. Whilst hiding out from the invading forces, Daisy begins to form a (disgusting) romantic bond with one cousin (
George MacKay), and is forced to guide another [youngest BAFTA winner ever] (
Harley Bird) through “a world that is unknown in the scariest, most elemental way.”
