‘Never Let Me Go’ features parallel world

Movie: "Never Let Me Go"

When: Opening Friday at Village Square

Cast: Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield, Keira Knightley, Charlotte Rampling, Sally Hawkins

Director: Mark Romanek

The story: In a parallel world, three boarding school friends discover the strange and awful truth about themselves: They're really lab specimens, raised to provide organs for gravely ill patients

The buzz: Fresh from a Labor Day showcase at the Telluride film festival, this adaptation of the acclaimed novel by Kazuo Ishiguro ("Remains of the Day") teams "One Hour Photo" director Romanek with two up-and-comers featured in other current movies: Mulligan, who's also in "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," and "The Social Network's" Garfield.
