Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Damian Lewis and director Gareth Lewis are brothers—this was their only collaboration, shot in rural Wales on a shoestring budget.
The film quietly subverts hitman tropes by making Milo's real danger not his past catching up, but the terrifying possibility that he might actually prefer baking to killing.
