Final Trailer for Alfonso Cuaron's 'Gravity'
Let's just say that the response to Alfonso Cuaron's Gravity has been nothing short of phenomenal. Premiering at Venice recently, Cuaron's first film in seven years currently stands at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, generally a pretty good measure of what the critics are feeling. And while the rest of us have a few more weeks to wait, a tantalizing new trailer (in 2K HD) has been released.
Prior trailers have really sold the drama and the terror behind the destruction of the space station that strands two astronauts (Sandra Bullock and George Clooney) in deep space with barely a lifeline. This one puts more of the sizzling visuals on displays, but also gives us a hint of the interpersonal connection between the two, which is going to be essential since they are basically the only two characters we will be encountering.
Gravity takes off on October 4th, and I can't wait.
