I have broken out of my sadness shell thanks to the trailer for Sam Mendes' new film "Revolutionary Road." I've been watching so much Cassavetes the past few weeks that seeing the same thing but different really gives me a thrill. This film, which was offered to Todd Field for direction, was turned down so he could make "Little Children." What we have from Mendes' is a piece of work with the same caliber of acting, camera style, set design, and realistic emotional struggle. I don't want to compare the two films anymore, because A) I haven't seen this yet, and B) I want to go and watch the trailer again. I know it's too early to hope for a best picture, but compred to the shit I've had to sit through this year (excluding the Dark Knight) this really gets me pumped and proud to go to the movies!
PS: I had to search hard for a trailer link to the film, because Paramount and Dreamworks have people deleting them off of Youtube. I found this bad boy on a Japanese Youtube clone called "RuTube." Enjoy! I know I will again!
