New Teaser for Jim Jarmusch's 'Only Lovers Left Alive'


Not every film headed to Sundance in a couple of days is a premiere, or one looking for distribution. Some have been already made the rounds and have release dates firmly in place, such as Jim Jarmusch's vampire romance, Only Lovers Left Alive. Debuting at Cannes last year it's been met with enthusiastic response, especially for stars Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston, and could be something of a sleeper when it opens in a couple of months.

A brief UK teaser has been released before it hits the snowy climes of Park City, and besides the fangs and blood, there seems to be a pretty introspective look at a number of different subjects dear to Jarmusch's heart. Hiddleston and Swinton play long-lived vampire lovers reunited after years apart, only to have their reunion interrupted by the arrival of her sister, played by Mia Wasikowska.

Co-starring Anton Yelchin, Jeffrey Wright, and John Hurt, Only Lovers Left Alive opens in the UK on February 21st, and here in the U.S. on April 11th.
