Synopsis
Felicia's Journey (1999) is Atom Egoyan's psychological thriller, free to watch online on iFILM. A seventeen-year-old Irish girl crosses to England with little more than a name and a city, searching for the boyfriend who left her pregnant.
What finds her instead is Joseph Hilditch — a soft-spoken, middle-aged catering manager who cooks dinner each night to the recipes of a long-dead TV chef. He offers Felicia help, and she takes it, slow to sense that his kindness has a basement to it and that her arrival may be no accident at all. Bob Hoskins plays Hilditch with no menace on the surface, which is exactly what makes him terrifying.
Adapting William Trevor's novel, Egoyan builds dread out of routine, loneliness and small talk rather than violence. Elaine Cassidy, in her breakout role, gives Felicia a wary innocence that anchors the whole film. One for viewers who like their horror quiet and human.
