Collider can exclusively present a new clip forBones and All,Luca Guadagnino’s highly-anticipated love story about young starstruck cannibals. Based on the 2015 novel of the same name byCamille DeAngelis, the movie starsTaylor RussellandTimothée Chalamet.Bones and Allfollows the story of Maren (Russell), a girl who’s learning to live alone on the margins of society after realizing she has a hunger for human flesh. In the new clip, Maren meets another cannibal, Sully (Mark Rylance), who is gruesomely preparing chicken for dinner. Maren tells Sully she thought she was the only one with such an urge. However, as Sully explains to her, cannibals are more common than she realizes, usually mistaken for creeps by people unaware this kind of hunger even exists. That’s an unnerving thought, but the existence of other cannibals will ultimately lead Maren to meet Lee (Chalamet).Bones and Allfollows Maren and Lee while they go on a road trip through the West of the United States in the 1980s. During their journey, they fall in love and grow closer together while working together to overcome their brutal nature. While the cannibalistic theme might be challenging for some viewers to digest, director Guadagnino underlines thathe never aimed for shock value with the movie. As Guadagnino, the film is instead about finding love while being an outcast and struggling to change your nature to fit in.RELATED:‘Bones and All’ Director Luca Guadagnino on Trusting Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell
