Where the wild things are trailered.

Finally, we get a glimpse of Spike Jonze's long-awaited kiddie (?) flick. Read More...
Trailering: Heartbreaking memorials, Irish dramas, more superheroes.
Mon, Oct 20 2008 3:00 PM
Here's a trailer for "Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father," Kurt Kuenne's documentary that begins as a memorial to his murdered best friend and goes to even more distressing places from there. The film, which has had a very successful festival fun since its premiere at Slamdance, opens in New York on Halloween and L.A. the week... Read More...
Trailering: Three "Nights."
Thu, Sep 11 2008 3:34 PM
There are three different teaser trailers, or maybe they'd be better described as anti-trailers, for Joe Swanberg's "Nights and Weekends" up on the official site here -- like the film, they're without music, based instead around single conversations ("You kiss harder... than I recall") cut through with other footage. Here's... Read More...
Trailering: Sean Penn as St. Harvey Milk.
Thu, Sep 4 2008 12:16 PM
When the International Museum of GLBT History opened in San Francisco in 2003, its inaugural exhibit was entitled "Saint Harvey: The Life and Afterlife of a Modern Gay Martyr," and included, as its central relic, the bloodstained suit in which Harvey Milk was assassinated in 1978. There's an identical air of a commemoration of martyrdom in the trailer... Read More...
Trailering: NYC, Chinatown, the RAF and Auschwitz.

Here's the teaser for "New York, I Love You," Gotham's answer to the 2006 anthology film "Paris, Je T'aime." It's still unfinished, but the trailer -- which includes both a Regina Spektor song and one from Feist, surely breaking some kind of indie waif proximity rule -- does contain an irritating abundance of characters generalizing...

Trailering: Bootleg "Che," "What Just Happened."
Thu, Jul 31 2008 4:25 PM
For those of you dying for even the slightest glimpse of Steven Soderbergh's "Che," JoBlo.com has surfaced a bootleg, flickery, unsubtitled Spanish-language trailer for "The Argentine," the first half of the four-hour film, here. The trailer, as trailers are wont to, siphons off only the most dramatic and actiony scenes, making the film... Read More...
Trailering: "W."'s wonderful world.
Mon, Jul 28 2008 12:57 PM
Dailymotion has a teaser trailer for Oliver Stone's "W." here. I... have no words. Other than that I find myself suddenly and unexpectedly looking forward to the film -- October 17th is the release date. From everything I've heard about "Sukiyaki Western Django," designating it "Takashi Miike's English language masterpiece... Read More...
Trailering: "Somers Town," "The Brothers Bloom."
Thu, Jul 24 2008 3:35 PM
There's a trailer up for Shane Meadows' sublimely small-scale "Somers Town" here. Here's my review of the film from Tribeca -- for my money, it's even better than Meadows' last, "This is England," taking up again with that film's lead and great discovery, Thomas Turgoose. No U.S. distribution in sight, alas. And here's... Read More...
Trailering: "Thunder" goes meta.
Wed, Jul 9 2008 2:28 PM
Meta-marketing: "Rain of Madness" is a purported documentary about the disastrous making of the movie they try to shoot in the upcoming comedy "Tropic Thunder"... got that? It's a perfectly po-faced parody of "Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse" and its behind-the-scenes brethren, claiming to document the cast and... Read More...
Trailering: Benjamin Button, Neil Young.
Thu, Jun 19 2008 9:43 AM
I don't think the otherwise gloriously shiny teaser trailer for David Fincher's "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" needs such twinkly Tim Burton music, and Brad Pitt's accented voiceover at the beginning worries me a bit, but it does look awfully good. The film is an adaptation of a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald (that can be read... Read More...
