Elijah Wood as Strawn Wise and Nell Fisher as Mildred setting off an adventure in the poster for Bookworm.
20 years after the filming of the movie that made him a household name, Elijah Wood returns to New Zealand in a hilarious and touching children’s movie. IndieWire released a trailer for Bookworm, the story of a role reversal between father and daughter. Wood’s character is a long cry from his heroic turn as Frodo in TheLord of the Rings trilogy but remains in his niche as a weird little guy. In Bookworm, he plays illusionist Strawn Wise, who returns to New Zealand to see his estranged daughter.
Things get slightly more real when Strawn admits remorse for being absent most of her life. His moment of redemption comes when he offers to take Mildred to get proof that the Canterbury Panther exists. It is the first time that Mildred exhibits true excitement, and is a way for Strawn to make up for the years he’s been away from her. Not a typical film about estrangement, Bookworm still has the potential to be equal parts touching and hilarious.
“Stick with me, and you’ll be fine,” Mildred assures her father. Strawn quickly falters, out of his element in a strange country with no idea how to get around. This scenario is a prime opportunity for the father-daughter duo to get to know each other and try to heal the wounds of past sins. The thesis of the film comes in the trailer when Strawn asks obliviously: “What did I ever do to you?” “Most daughters see their dads more than once a decade,” she replies.
