Watch The First Trailer For Sundance Hit Tyrannosaur

You may know Paddy Considine and one of the two Deputy Seargent Andys from Hot Fuzz or the journalist from the beginning of The Bourne Ultimatum, but what you may not know is that he's also a director responsible for a film that many critics have already deemed one of the best of the year: Tyrannosaur. After premiering at this year's Sundance Film Festival and earning great praise for the performances by lead actors Peter Mullan and Olivia Colman, the film was picked up for distribution Strand Releasing and today we have the first trailer. Check it out:

In the film Mullen stars as Joseph, a man so full of rage he suffers from outbursts of violence. When he meets Hannah (Olivia Colman), however, a young woman caught in an abusive relationship he sees his chance for redemption. Mullen and Colman both won the Special Jury Prize for Breakout Performance at Sundance and Considine won the World Cinema Award for Directing. Though the film doesn't have a release date yet, when it does it'll probably be in your best interest to rush out and see it.
