Weekend Trailer Roundup

Here are some of the best trailers I saw this week, hope you see something you like.

Cyrus (dir. The Duplass Brothers) - Premiering at Sundance, this comedy stars John C. Reilly, Marisa Tomei, and Jonah Hill. The Duplass Brothers are known primarily for their work in the mumblecore genre (improvised indie pics). Very interested in what they do with this film.



Terribly Happy (dir. Henrik Ruben Genz)- a very crazy looking Danish film, in the vein of Twin Peaks. I am there!



Babies (dir. Thomas Balmes) - a documentary following four babies (Mongolia, Namibia, Japan, and the Western US) through their first year. Yes, it is a very simple premise, but within this premise I think you could have a remarkable film.




Diary of a Wimpy Kid
(dir. Thor Freudenthal) - This book series is insanely popular with kids, I see them eat up constantly. And the film adaptation doesn't look half bad.




I Love You Phillip Morris
(dir. Glen Ficarra) - Based on a true story, Jim Carrey plays a con man who falls in love with Ewan MacGregor's title character. Looks like a very interesting comedy-drama.




Nick Nolte: No Exit
(dir.Tom Thurman) - A documentary analyzing the human freight train that is Nick Nolte. How can this not be good?!
