News "Good" Film, Based on Taylor Play, Arrives in Select Cities Dec. 31 "Good," which made its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, arrives in select U.S. cities Dec. 31.

Based on CP Taylor's play of the same name, the film was directed by Vicente Amorim. John Wrathall penned the screenplay.

The cast features Viggo Mortensen as John Halder, Jason Isaacs as Maurice, Jodie Whittaker as Anne, Mark Strong as Bouhler, Steven Mackintosh as Freddie and Gemma Jones as Mother.

"A German literature professor in the 1930s, Halder explores his personal circumstances in a novel advocating compassionate euthanasia," according to press notes. "When the book is unexpectedly enlisted by powerful political figures in support of government propaganda, Halder finds his career rising in an optimistic current of nationalism and prosperity. Yet with Halder's change in fortune, his seemingly inconsequential decisions potentially jeopardize the people in his life with devastating effects."

Miriam Segal produced the 95-minute film.
