It’s not the most exciting things you’ll see in your lifetime or even today, but some new photos and a second trailer for Florian Henckel Von Donnersmarck’s “The Tourist” have arrived.
Truthfully, the new trailer isn’t that much, different from the first one; it’s a romantic spy drama that looks a little bit more thrilling and serious than it did on paper (various versions were a little fluffy). The picture stars Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie and well, at least the trailer and photos are more remarkable than the recent poster. But with A-list talent like that, the Sony-thinking is probably just put them up their front and center and who cares what the rest of the movie is about.
Directed by Von Donnersmarck (the German filmmaker behind “The Lives Of Others”), “The Tourist” is on the 2005 French film “Anthony Zimmer,” that follows a bumbling American tourist (Depp) as he finds himself romantically involved with an international spy (Jolie) in this quasi-Hitchcock-ian tale of a man in the wrong place at the wrong time. While those that called this picture an awards season contender certainly now have egg on their face, this should still be a breezy antidote to that stuff-serious Academy-fare when it’s released right in the thick of it on December 10, 2010.
