trailer break: ‘The Private Lives of Pippa Lee’

I’m glad I hadn’t seen this trailer before I saw the film last night, because I had no idea where the story was gonna go, and I wouldn’t have been as wonderfully in the dark if I’d seen this. It doesn’t spoil everything, and in fact, the film is not the kind that’s about suspense, so it really can’t be spoiled. But still: it remains one of the things I love best about what I do, that I can see movies with next to no preconceived notions about what it’s gonne be.

The Private Lives of Pippa Lee is already available on DVD in the U.K.; it opens in the U.S. on November 27.
