Go With Me
The film is based on the book Go With Me. Go With Me was the film's title before it was released; it was reviewed as Go With Me at the 2015 Venice Film Festival. The film is released in some markets (e.g. the US) as Blackway and in others (e.g. the UK) as Go With Me.
Plot
A modern fable set against the rugged backdrop of a Pacific Northwest logging community, Blackway tells the story of Lillian (Julia Stiles), a young woman newly returned to her hometown who becomes the subject of harassment by a man named Blackway (Ray Liotta), an ex-cop turned violent crime lord who operates with impunity in this small community on the edge of the wilderness. Forsaken by the local townspeople, and advised by the sheriff to leave town, Lillian decides instead to take a stand against her sociopathic stalker, and enlists the help of ex-logger Lester (Anthony Hopkins) and his laconic young sidekick Nate (Alexander Ludwig)—the only two men in town brave enough, or crazy enough, to go with her, and go up against Blackway.
