Tilda Swinton plays the mother of a violent, disturbed boy in her latest movie, We Need to Talk About Kevin

Rocking a tuxedo jacket and silk blouse by Salvatore Ferragamo, the 50-year old Michael Clayton and Adaptation actress recently told  W mag: “When we were trying to finance this movie, we would reference Rosemary’s Baby. It’s every pregnant woman’s nightmare to give birth to the devil.”

Interesting words for the Oscar-nominated actress and the only girl in her immediate family who just admitted to Great Britain’s The Telegraph Magazine that she once tried to kill her own bother:

“Years ago, when James Bulger was murdered, every newspaper front page was talking about evil. At that point, having suppressed it for years, I remembered when I was four or five, I tried to kill my own brother… He was newly born and I was disappointed, because he was the third boy. That was enough as far as I was concerned.”

She continued, “I went into his room to kill him, saw some ribbons from a bonnet going into his mouth, and began to pull them out. And I was discovered saving his life. So I had this strange reputation – my brother’s savior – and no one knew I wanted to kill him. It took the Bulger case for me to remember that I’d seriously wanted to.”

Frightening? Traumatic?
