A LONG WAY DOWN TRAILER
 TONI COLLETTE, PIERCE BROSNAN, AARON PAUL, SAM NEILL, IMOGEN POOTS
We've been waiting for quite a long time to get the first trailer for truly beautiful, inspiring and intriguing drama A LONG WAY DOWN and now it is finally here! Rather stellar cast, including Toni Collette, Pierce Brosnan, Aaron Paul and Imogen Poots, plays four different people who unexpectedly meet  at New Year's Eve on top of a London skyscraper where they all wanted to commit a suicide. Based on a Nick Hornby's novel the film revolves on the chance encounter where the four - a disgraced chat show host, a single mother, a failed musician and a troubled teenager respectively - foil each other's attempts to commit suicide in solitude. After making a pact to postpone their suicides until Valentine's Day, they begin to form a surrogate family! Sam Neill and Rosamund Pike also star in the film which opens up in cinemas this March.

  12. I was just thinking about Sharon Stone just yesterday, wondering what I had last seen her in. For some reason, I was thinking about her movie Sliver, so she was kind of stuck in my head for a bit. Glad to see her on a tv series!
