Tyrannosaur is the harrowing story of Joseph (Peter Mullan), a man plagued by violence and a rage that is driving him to self-destruction. The British drama marks the feature debut for actor turned director Paddy Considine, who has made his name starring in such Shane Meadows films as Dead Man's Shoes and Le Donk And Scor-zay-zee, as well as the Oscar-nominated films Cinderella Man and In America.
