Cairo Time Poster
I hadn’t heard of this film until ComingSoon posted the poster/synopsis, but I am extremely excited for it. Partly because I’m a sucker for romances and Egypt and Patricia Clarkson, but mostly because of ALEXANDER SIDDIG. He’s probably most famous for playing Dr. Bashir on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and because of that role I’ve loved him since I was a little girl. He was really great in a supporting role in 2005’s Syriana. This film is probably going to be too little to launch him as a leading man, which is a shame.
Synopsis also thanks to ComingSoon:
Clarkson plays Juliette, a fashion magazine editor in her 40s, who travels to Cairo to meet her husband, Mark (McCamus), a UN official working in Gaza, for a three week vacation. When he is unavoidably delayed, he sends his friend Tareq (Siddig), who had been his security officer for many years, to escort her throughout the beautiful and exotic city. The last thing anyone expects is that they will fall in love. Cairo Time is a romantic drama about a brief, unexpected love affair that catches two people completely off-guard.
The film opens in America August 6th.
Poster for David Fincher’s “The Social Network”
I am beyond excited for this movie. David Fincher is one of my favorite directors and Jesse Eisenberg is one of the top up and coming actors working today. This poster is so fabulous. I cannot wait for the trailer to break.
“Somewhere”, “Never Let Me Go” trailers
Rewatching the trailer for The American reminded me that in the last two days trailers have gone online for two other films I’m looking forward to this year: Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere and Mark Romanek’s Never Let Me Go.
Poster for Anton Corbijn’s ‘The American’
This is one of my most anticipated films of the year. Anton Corbijn’s debut film, 2007’s Ian Curtis biopic Control is one of my favorite films of all time. I think Corbijn’s background as a photographer and music video director gives him a really great point of view when it comes to his films. Add to the mix George Clooney, who has pretty much, aside from one or two not-so-great films, been on fire for the last ten years and you’ve really got something. Look for the trailer after the cut.
