An American couple and their daughter accept a weekend in the country from a family they met on holiday. The host is charming in a way that uses up the word no. Watkins, remaking the Danish film, lets the politeness last longer than it should. James McAvoy’s Paddy offers another drink. Mackenzie Davis’s Louise is the one who wants to leave and keeps being talked into the next hour. The Universal trailer is the farmhouse. The film is the moment the guests stop apologizing.
