August: Osage County trailer: this Christmas’s feel-bad flick
Don’t let this somewhat chipper collection of hugs and gentle ribbing mislead you…
trailers
Big Bad Wolves trailer: vigilante injustice?
Stories about vigilantes are always problematic for me, and few films get it right. So I shall be approaching this one with caution.
Hours trailer: Paul Walker’s last film
Goddammit. I was not a fan of the guy, but this sucks.
Out of the Furnace trailer: men men men men men
Glad to see that someone is finally telling the untold stories about men and violence, and the relationships between brothers and fathers and sons. We never see such things on the big screen.
Sherlock lives! (and returns to the U.K. on New Year’s Day)
And enjoy the trailer here…
The Christmas Candle trailer: based on the Klingon proverb, I believe…
“Better to light up the church than curse the single miracle candle,” wasn’t it?
Third Contact trailer: indie “shot in London, not about gangsters”
A science fiction film! About ideas! How wonderful.
The Invisible Woman trailer: Ralph Fiennes *is* Charles Dickens!
If I’d seen this trailer before I saw the film (at this year’s London Film Festival), I’m not sure I’d be all that impressed with it.
Homefront trailer: Jason Statham edges toward human characters
So, even though this opens in the U.S. and Canada tomorrow, I am embargoed from posting my review till next Monday…
Black Nativity trailer: home for Christmas
It’s been two years since I’ve been home to New York for Christmas, and I’ll be in London for the holidays this year, so this will probably make me homesick.
