Greetings, citizens! ROBOGEEK here with a trailer treat for ya.
While I was out and about earlier, the QuickTime Movie Trailer team over at Apple posted the first trailer for a film that slowly crept onto my radar, and which I'm now dying to see.
Consider...
...we've got Anthony Hopkins - who is a god - as well as Hope Davis (who I completely adore) and the often great David Morse...
...we have director Scott Hicks, who not only did SHINE, but perhaps the single most underrated - and beautiful - film of 1999, SNOW FALLING ON CEDARS...
...we have a novel by Stephen King, adapted by no less a screenwriting legend than William Goldman...
...and it's the final film shot by cinematographer Piotr Sobocinski (Krzysztof Kieslowski's DEKALOG and TROIS COULEURS: ROUGE, which earned him an Oscar nomination) before his untimely death in March (he was 43).
[PLEASE NOTE: To view the trailer, you need QuickTime 5. And FYI, its size/resolution is dependent on the connection speed you have listed in your preferences (ergo: the better the connection, the better the trailer).]
