It's been a rough couple of years for Nicole Kidman as she's no longer the automatic awards contender she used to be. Grace of Monaco got ripped savagely after opening at Cannes, The Railway Man didn't fare much better (it was awful), and while I enjoyed Before I Go to Sleep audiences didn't bother to check it out. There's at least one film on the horizon that may be more of what we expect from her and it's the new Aussie thriller, Strangerland, and now there's a haunting new trailer for it.
Marking the directorial debut by Kim Farrant with Hugo Weaving and Joseph Fiennes co-starring, the film centers on a couple's desperate search to find their children who went missing in the harsh Australian outback. This is exactly the kind of role Kidman is great at and we haven't seen nearly enough from her lately, so hopefully Strangerland will get U.S. distribution soon.
