Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close - 12/25/11
The second trailer for Stephen Daldry's inspirational-looking, star-studded film about a boy who loses his father (Tom Hanks) in the World Trade Center on 9/11, debuted this week. The trailer shows us much more of Max Von Sydow, who is generating Oscar buzz for his role, as well as the performances of Sandra Bullock, John Goodman, Viola Davis, and Jeffrey Wright. Although the film's protagonist is a nine-year old with a piercing high-pitched voice, the film is expected to be one of the best of the year. Based on the novel by Jonathan Safran-Foer (Everything is Illuminated), Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is set for a limited Christmas Day release and will go wide in January.
