Here’s Elizabeth Olsen again (she’s also in Godzilla), this time as a girl forced to marry a man she’s not in love with. This is based on the racy Émile Zola novel, and looks a tad predictable – but nicely dark and gloomy.

Lads, can we quit with this ‘putting the entire film into the trailer, thereby removing any sense of suspense’ business? Sigh.

The trailer tells us almost everything that happens next, but this still looks gripping.
