David Cronenberg Makes the Longest Movie of His Career and We Can’t Wait
The film is all the more interesting to fans of David Cronenberg, who know the screenplay is loosely based on the filmmaker’s own experience of grieving for his wife, who passed away in 2017. Diane Kruger plays the wife in the movie, and she has expressed her own excitement at getting to play three different roles in the story.
The Shrouds is a much-anticipated, gloriously long film, and while we wait, we can always go back and rewatch the extensive body of work David Cronenberg has already completed.
