The Big Picture While bottle movies require intricate development to sustain an audience, when done right, they can be thrilling adventures. Stuart Hazeldine's 2009 directorial debut feature Exam is one such film. Set against the stark walls of a windowless room, Exam is a gut punch of a psychological thriller with an intriguing plot twist.
Actors Nathalie Cox, Chuk Iwuji, Gemma Chan, Jimi Mistry, Colin Salmon, Pollyanna McIntosh, Luke Mably, Adar Beck, John Lloyd Fillingham, Chris Carey Release Date January 8, 2010 Run Time 97 minutes Director Stuart Hazeldine Studio Bedlam Productions, Hazeldine Films 'Exam's Stripped-Down Setting Breeds Psychological Mayhem Exam skips fancy sets and sweeping views. The film banks on its characters and their mental tug-of-war instead.
Exam's tease of a looming sci-fi atmosphere thickens the plot and its thriller elements. The isolated setting that creates a feeling of unease and some of the characters' obsession with a deadly pandemic add to the film's mystery. The fear of infection and the belief that the company has a magical part to play in it hangs over the candidates' heads.
'Exam's Diverse Cast Provides a Nuanced, Multicultural Showcase of Talent One of the salient features of Exam is its diverse cast of characters who come accentuated with different cultures, varied accents, and diverse experiences they bring into the film. By exploring this multicultural cast, Exam reflects today's modern workplace scenarios in a globalized corporate world.
