About The Boy Next Door
A novelist moves to a small town to write her next novel. She seeks inspiration and as time goes by she gathers information about her neighbor, a young, wealthy man whom she observes, as well as photographs, from her window. She soon finds herself a suspect in a murder investigation due to suspicious circumstances involving her odd behavior and reclusive lifestyle. She must fight to demonstrate her innocence.
Directed by Neill Fearnley, The Boy Next Door leans on a strong ensemble — Dina Meyer, Cory Monteith, Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 2008.
