PHONE BOOTH

Channel 4 · Thriller · 01 Oct 2010 · by: Channel 4

In Joel Schumacher's taut thriller, told in real time, cynical, smarmy PR man Stu Shepard (Colin Farrell) picks up a ringing phone in a booth on a busy New York street to find a killer on the line. Armed with a high-powered sniper's rifle, the anonymous caller soon proves his prowess and presents Shepard with a choice: convince the police of his story before they shoot him or drop the phone and be shot. His only hope lies in self-abasement and facing up to the truths of his life.
