Burn After Reading
Posted by derekbender | Filed under Random
One of my most anticipated films of the year is the Coen brother’s new film Burn After Reading. The Coens directed last year’s best picture No Country for Old Men, and they are responsible for The Big Lebowski, Blood Simple and O Brother, Where Art Thou?, some of my favorite films.
Here’s the synopsis:
This new dark-spy comedy stars Academy Award nominee John Malkovich as an ousted CIA official, whose memoir accidentally falls into the hands of two unwise gym employees (Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand) intent on exploiting their find. Also featuring George Clooney, Tilda Swinton and Richard Jenkins.
The (hilarious) red band trailer can be found here on Slashfilm.com. Can’t go wrong when you give John Malkovich a hatchet.
Apart from it being in the running to be one of the best films of the year, it also has a really well designed poster. Very spy-like with a flavor of communist Russia which makes sense with the espionage theme of the movie. Also some great custom typography.
