The Hide (2008)
I liked it!

I was not sure what to expect but I really enjoyed it, and it kept my attention throughout, despite the late hour. The writing was excellent, both actors were terrific and the film was beautifully shot. The film is full of tension without descending into cheap shocks.
I would say it is less 'Pinteresque' (as one reviewer said) than Sam Shepherdesque... as you carry on thinking about the characters and the things you learn about them long after the film is over.
The scenes of the lonely marshland and the distant birds are very atmospheric, too.
I hope it gets the success it deserves! It's great to see a British film, and I presume a low-budget one, with such promise.
