'BAREFOOT' TRAILER
Two new trailers for you this Monday. First one is for romantic comedy BAREFOOT which should tiptoe into the cinemas next February. Scott Speedman plays the "black sheep" son of a wealthy family who meets a free-spirited, but sheltered woman (deeply strange casting of Evan Rachel Wood). To convince his family that he's finally straightened out his life, he takes her home for his brother's wedding where an improbable romance blooms, as she impresses everyone with her genuine, simple charms. The movie also stars J.K. Simmons and Treat Williams.
'IN SECRET' TRAILER
ELIZABETH OLSEN & JESSICA LANGE & TOM FELTON
Sometime ago you've read a whole spotlight on upcoming period drama IN SECRET (previously known as THERESE) based on Emile Zola's novel THERESE RAQUIN and today you can watch the first trailer for the movie. Shot in Serbia, the film is set in the lower echelons of 1860s Paris. Therese Raquin (Elizabeth Olsen), a sexually repressed beautiful young woman, is trapped into a loveless marriage to her sickly cousin, Camille (Tom Felton), by her domineering aunt, Madame Raquin (Jessica Lange). Therese spends her days confined behind the counter of a small shop and her evenings watching Madame play dominoes with an eclectic group. After she meets her husband's alluring friend, Laurent (Oscar Isaac), she embarks on an illicit affair that leads to tragic consequences.
Wow, can't quite get over that hair on Felton! But IN SECRET might be good. A dark, dramatic, lusty tale. You just know it's going to end badly all around though. :)
ReplyDeleteyes, one of them movies in which you actually cheer for the characters to end up badly LOL
DeleteI agree L.G. I think he fell into a pot of Dippity Do.
DeleteI had to Google that, Debs :)
Delete"In Secret" looks good -- I didn't even recognize Jessica Lange!
ReplyDeleteglad you liked that one, Debs
DeleteIf the casting is "deeply strange", do you think it will work?
ReplyDeleteI've no idea, guess it will if you like both actors. Evan never played in movies like these and usually has weird and morbid roles so it's difficult to take her as a sweet romantic girl... I mean she dated Marylin Manson....
DeleteDid Jessica Lange get lots of botox or plastic surgery? I had to do a double take!
ReplyDeleteBarefoot looks like a good date movie.
I think she takes botox for breakfast like Nicole Kidman and Courtney Cox
DeleteIn Secret sounds like a very intense drama!
ReplyDeleteyep, when passion lights the fire somebody is guaranteed to get burnt
DeleteI do like period pieces, In Secret sounds like a tragedy waiting to happen!
ReplyDeletekinda like my efforts in learning Italian :)
Delete"barefoot" seems a bit hippy-ish :D but it's with evan wood so it should be ok :D
ReplyDeleteHippy can be cool sometimes
DeleteI've only seen Elizabeth Olsen in one movie and I really liked her. I may catch In Secret.
ReplyDeleteI haven't but I hear people like her
DeleteIs that Jessica Lange on Botox?
ReplyDeletethat's her main type of food :)
Delete'In Secret' look rather good methinks. :) And as for Jessica Lange ... has she had work? Or is that an understatement!
ReplyDeletemore of a gigantic project than work :)
DeleteBarefoot looks good. I think In Secret would be extremely depressing.
ReplyDeletemethinks so to, Sandra
DeleteI stink at this stuff. Not one actor, do I know.
ReplyDeletenor do I know them either
Deleteyou two are hopeless if you don't know who Jessica Lange or Scott Spedman are :)
DeleteI skipped over Lang, know her. No idea though, who the heck Spedman is.
DeleteOooh finally In Secret will come out. You know there is nowhere in France that is beautiful enough to look like 1860's Paris. In Serbia, there is still some untouched beauty available. Also you don't have pesky stuck up French peoples to deal with )
ReplyDeleteyep, they've used old parts of Belgrade for the shooting of this film.
DeleteMethinks the south of France is very beautiful, dear, especially the countryside
Both look good Dezzy :)
ReplyDelete......dhole
glad you think so, Donna
DeleteYes, both look good! Serbia looks so beautiful in this film~
ReplyDeleteI love the way it is done-intriguing! Off to find the book ;D
Thank you Dezzy! I love your Christmas look-
