Bean Roles ~ Full of Beans



In a futuristic world, a strict regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feeling is a crime punishable by death. John Preston (Bale) is a top-ranking Grammaton Cleric  responsible for destroying those who resist these rules, the "sense offenders."

Preston has already seen his wife exterminated for sense offence and is personally responsible for the execution of his partner Partridge (Sean Bean) when his suspicions that Partridge is feeling, and therefore sense offending are proven.

When he misses his dose of Prozium, the mind-altering drug that suppresses emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce the strict laws of the new regime, finds himself full of guilt over the deaths he has been responsible for, particularly Partridge, as he begins to understand what it is to feel.
