We live in an age that reads too much to be intelligent and thinks too much to be beautiful.

As soon as that trailer's in Quicktime, I'll comment on it. I saw the play; I thought it was okay, with some really good stuff and lots of rather standard relationship material (it especially seems old hat if you've seen anything by Neil LaBute). It'll be interesting to see Julia Roberts talking graphically about her sexual experiences. Other than her (although she certainly could be great in the part, if she makes the right choices), the cast is great and between them and Nichols, the material could be elevated to a level beyond what I saw on the stage. Portman and Owen have the best roles, so regardless, they'll make the whole thing worth watching.

nice trailer, but I hate it when they label the actors award winners and nominees.

You play to win..

(duh duh duh!)

Hate all that stupid plotline text crap. Show us some select scenes from the movie which make us FEEL what you are putting on the screen in text.

completely agree.
yesterday, I saw the trailer for this film "slap her, she's french" on tv http://imdb.com/title/tt0187512/
I didn't care for it, it was like everyother teen movie, then, in giant letters, and with a deep voice over: "IT'S TIME FOR AMERICA TO STRIKE BACK!". could they have come up with a more stupid tagline?

it's like "We Don't Live Here Anymore" with bigger stars.

It's a good enough trailer. The text didn't distract me too much. Looks almost word-for-word like the play, except with the benefit of close-ups.

Funny you should mention Slap Her She's French, rustin. A few of my friends worked on that, and I visited the set a few times. The US distributor ran out of money and couldn't afford to release it, though, so no one ever got to find out exactly how crappy it was.

man, when i was doing market research we had to work on Slap Her, She's French!  several times.  it looked hideous and i was embarrased to show it to people.

i like everyone in this cast (closer) and hopefully this will be good/okay.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.
