It was released in the UK on 14 March 2014 and the US on 4 April. The film stars Scarlett Johansson as an otherworldly seductress who preys on men in Scotland. The music was composed by Mica Levi. Glazer developed ''Under the Skin'' for more than a decade, eventually settling on a film that takes an alien perspective of the human world. Most of the characters were played by non-actors, including road racer Jeremy McWilliams; many scenes were unscripted conversations filmed with hidden cameras on the street. It competed for the Golden Lion at the 70th Venice International Film Festival. Despite failing to recoup its $13.3 million budget, ''Under the Skin'' received praise from critics, particularly for Johansson's performance, Glazer's direction, and Levi's score. It was named one of the best films of 2014 by many critics and received multiple accolades. ==Plot== In Glasgow, Scotland, a motorcyclist (Jeremy McWilliams) retrieves an inert young woman (Lynsey Taylor Mackay) from the roadside and places her in the back of a van. A naked woman (Scarlett Johansson) dons her clothes, then goes to a shopping centre and buys clothes and make-up. In the sky above, lights scatter. She drives the van around Scotland, picking up men on the street. She lures a man (Joe Szula) to a dilapidated house and into a black void, where he is submerged in a liquid abyss. At a beach, the woman attempts to pick up a swimmer (Kryštof Hádek). Their exchange is interrupted by the cries of a drowning couple. The swimmer rescues the husband, but he rushes back into the water to save his wife and drowns. The woman strikes the swimmer's head with a rock, drags him to the van, and drives away, ignoring the couple's distraught toddler. Later that night, the motorcyclist retrieves the swimmer's belongings, ignoring the toddler, who is still on the beach. The next day the woman listens to a radio report about the missing family. The woman visits a nightclub and picks up another man (Paul Brannigan). He follows her into the void and is submerged in the liquid. Suspended beneath the surface, he sees the swimmer floating beside him, alive but bloated and almost immobile. When he reaches to touch him, the swimmer's body collapses, leaving empty skin behind. A red mass disappears down a trough. The woman walks the streets, observing people in their daily lives; when she trips, strangers help her up. She seduces a lonely and sexually inexperienced man with facial disfigurement (Adam Pearson). After studying herself in a mirror, she lets him escape and drives to the Scottish Highlands. The motorcyclist intercepts the man and bundles him into a car, then sets out in pursuit of the woman with three other motorcyclists. The woman abandons the van in the fog. She walks to a restaurant and attempts to eat cake, but retches and spits it out. At a bus stop, she meets a man (Michael Moreland) who offers to help her. At his house, they eat and watch television, and she attempts to tap her finger to music. Alone in her room, she examines her body in a mirror. They visit a ruined castle, where the man carries her over a puddle and helps her down some steps. At his house, they kiss and begin to have sex, but she stops and examines her vagina, alarmed. The woman wanders in a forest, meets a commercial logger (Dave Acton), and takes shelter in a bothy. She is woken by the logger molesting her. After she runs into the forest, he catches her and attempts to rape her. In the struggle, he tears skin from her back, revealing a black, featureless body. As the woman extricates herself from her skin, the logger douses her in fuel and burns her alive. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Under the Skin (2013 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
