Trailer Time: Martha Marcy May Marlene

This is the type of trailer I have no complaints about. Despite the Sundance buzz around the film and its leading star Elizabeth Olsen, I wasn't particularly interested in it aside from minor curiousity, but the trailer does the job. It's moody, beautifully edited, and it doesn't give too much away about the film either. If the film is as good as this trailer suggests,we can expect a major critical hit. 
John Hawkes' role looks sort of similar to his Oscar nominated turn in last year's Winter's Bone, but he pulled that one off so well, I can't wait to see what he can do this time around. 



*The US release date is October 7th (limited) and no Canadian release date has been announced yet.

  1. I wrote about this movie in a recent post and mentioned that I was so eager to see it despite not having seen a trailer for it. Now, thanks to you, I've seen the trailer and, thanks to you, I want to see it even more.

    I love that John Hawkes is getting more recognition now, and that Elizabeth Olsen looks like a fresh star in the making.

    Good times.
