Hallam Foe (Jamie Bell) is a teen loner. He suspects his stepmother Verity (Claire Forlani) killed his mother. He's also a peeping Tom. He is pushed out of his home by Verity and his father Julius (Ciarán Hinds) and ends up in Edinburgh. He is taken with hotel manager Kate Breck (Sophia Myles) who resembles his mother. She gives him a menial job and he starts peeping in on her. She is having an affair with married employee Alasdair.
Jamie Bell continues to show that he is more than Billy Elliot. He has grown up to be a young man. He has a damaged darkness and also a sweet vulnerability. Sophia Myles also shows that duality. The movie never gets too dark. It's really interesting to see Jamie Bell expand his repertoire.
