    VIFF '11: Paddy Considine's Directorial Debut 'Tyrannosaur' An Uneven Portrait Of A Damaged Man

    The opening scene of “Tyrannosaur” is a real belter. Through near whiplash-inducing cross cuts, we are introduced to a night in the life of Joseph (Peter Mullan) as he drinks heavily and stews with unfettered rage on a barstool (and back at home with a sawed-off wood baseball bat that looks like a l...

    Paddy Considine is a longtime character actor who really deserves some bigger exposure. He's disappeared into roles in a number of solid films including "In America," "Cinderella Man," "Hot Fuzz," "The Bourne Ultimatum" and more. Any time he appears on screen it's like we've never seen him before, but the actor is already taking the talent he's long displayed in front of the camera behind it.
