In 2018, Ben Foster and Thomasin McKenzie starred in a wilderness drama called Leave No Trace in which a father taught his daughter to live off the grid well out of view of “civilization.” I thought of that as I viewed the new thriller The Marsh King’s Daughter, but for some reason this story kept reminding me more of 1962’s terrifying suspense drama Cape Fear, as well as its Martin Scorsese-directed 1991 remake. Maybe it is just because of the remote setting and a key character who comes back and sparks terror in the hearts of a family that didn’t know what they were in for.
Jacob (Ben Mendelsohn) is known as the elusive Marsh King, a man who kidnaps a young woman named Beth (Caren Pistorius) and takes her to the remote marshlands of Michigan, where he torments her and becomes father to their daughter Helena (Brooklynn Prince...

In the opening of Neil Burger’s The Marsh King’s Daughter, based on Karen Dionne’s 2017 novel of the same name, it’s not the king or his daughter who first captivates us but the marsh itself. As the film begins, the camera crawls through the reeds growing in the swamps of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, capturing scuttling bugs and twisting branches in loving close-ups while the softest sunlight breaks in between the trees and ethereal music echoes in the air. Recalling Terrence Malick’s films, the moment paints the marshlands as a kind of paradise.
We’re immediately drawn into the world as it exists to young Helena Holbrook (Brooklynn Prince). The hunter-gatherer existence that defines Helena and her family is the only one she’s ever known. For Helena, the marshlands are a place of comfort and wonder. This is largely because her father, Jacob (Ben Mendelsohn), raised...

Daisy Ridley is returning to the silver screen this fall in "The Marsh King's Daughter," and it looks to be another unique entry in her filmography after wrapping up the "Star Wars" sequel trilogy in 2019. Based on Karen Dionne's novel of the same name and hailing from Lionsgate, this is an action/thriller that sees Ridley going toe-to-toe with another "Star Wars" alum by way of "Rogue One" in the form of Ben Mendelsohn, who is playing her estranged father. Let's get ready to rumble.
It's the latest in a string of unique, post-franchise choices that Ridley has made, including starring in the unfortunately disastrous YA adaptation "Chaos Walking" or giving comedy a go in Judd Apatow's "The Bubble." She also starred in the drama "Sometimes I Think About Dying," which debuted at Sundance earlier this year. And yes, she's going to return as Rey in a galaxy far,...
