Dark and Deep

Sir Mark Rylance is a legend of British theatre and an Oscar winning actor. In Fridtjof Ryder’s debut film, Inland (2023) he plays a car mechanic, Dunleavy,  perhaps a substitute father to the film’s unnamed protagonist. Rylance plays Dunleavy as a man both of the present and from an older tradition of myths and legends, with a sense of some tragic, elegiac wisdom: “I’m ancient me, now. What you call vintage, heritage. I’ve got giant’s bones.”
