Montclair Film Festival | THE WHALE
About Montclair Film Festival | THE WHALE
Based on the acclaimed play by Samuel D. Hunter, Darren Aronofsky‘s THE WHALE is the story of Charlie (Brendan Fraser, in a career best performance), a reclusive English teacher living with severe obesity who attempts to reconnect with his estranged teenage daughter Ellie (Sadie Sink) for one last chance at redemption. A heartbreaking portrait of love, loss, and second chances, THE WHALE is a profoundly beautiful story of a fractured family trying to find forgiveness in a sea of regret. Sure to be one of the most talked about performances of the year, we are proud to welcome Brendan Fraser and THE WHALE to this year’s festival.
