The damn good trailer for UP IN THE AIR has gone live!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. My review of Jason Reitman's UP IN THE AIR from Telluride went up this morning. I didn't get the memo that it was UP IN THE AIR day, but I managed to beat the trailer by a few hours at the very least.

I really dug the film and I'm loving this trailer. There's no Mr. Voice, just Clooney giving a speech that's central to his character and his character's outlook on life. You get the sadness, you get the melancholy and you get a real damn good idea of the tone of the movie, which is important. I was afraid Paramount might want to go the safe route and cut a romantic comedy trailer for the movie, which would be a trick. There is that element in the movie, but it's certainly not the movie.

Slashfilm has the trailer and I've embedded it below. Enjoy!
