Second Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close Trailer Is Here To Make You Cry
Remember the Rudy Giuliani presidential campaign from 2008? After doing a great job as mayor of New York City for many years and establishing himself as a strong candidate for the Republican party, he completely imploded thanks to the fact that all he could do is constantly talk about September 11th. I'm reminded of the campaign because the new trailer for Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close has been released online and it basically serves to do the same thing that Giuliani did: it makes you remember the tragedy of the terrorist attacks, emotionally manipulates you, and then waits for you to give it money.
Check out the new trailer below and to see it in HD head on over to Apple.
Based on the book by Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close tells the story of Oskar Schell (Thomas Horn), a young boy who loses his father (Tom Hanks) during the September 11th attacks. Searching through his father's things, Oskar discovers a mysterious key and feels compelled to search around the city to find the lock that it opens. The film boasts an impressive cast that includes Sandra Bullock, John Goodman, Max von Sydow, Viola Davis, and Jeffrey Wright. The film was directed by Stephen Daldry and based on a script by Eric Roth. Look for the film when it hits theaters on Christmas day and to learn more about the title, be sure to head over to our Blend Film Database.
