> Set against the summer of 1942, as war rages in Europe, the period comedy follows the family of a teenage boy who is away fighting at the front. In a bid to secure his safety, they welcome his volatile commanding officer into their rural village home.
> The sociopathic army major rapidly forces them to abide by his insane obsessive rules and the family is pushed to absurd and devastating extremes in the name of love.

If it has the same sardonic humor as The Death of Stalin, I’m in.
That movie does dark humor really well, not just “say random offensive thing to get a sympathy laugh”.

This is a killer cast for a dark comedy. The Death of Stalin writer gives me a lot of confidence.

I’ll watch anything with Ruth in it. Fell in love with her when she was on Preacher.
