A new trailer finally for George Clooney’s Up In The Air is here (super HD) (YouTube version below). Much better than the first trailer. Some one in the marketing department finally realized the first preview sucked and did nothing to sell the essence of this movie which is about corporate downsizing. A subject I expect will resonate during these tough economic times. If fact I predict the plot is so in sync with the public mood that Up In The Air will be a big hit for Clooney, Vera Farmiga, Anna Kendrick and director Jason Reitman.
Until today George Clooney had two films releasing within a week of each other.
Clooney film ‘Air’ gets release date
Reitman-directed pic is due out December 4
Paramount Pictures has set Dec. 4 as the limited launch date for George Clooney starrer “Up in the Air,” the Jason Reitman-directed adaptation of the Walter Kirn novel. ● More from: Variety
It’s been near-unanimous praise for Up in the Air. Roger Ebert is the latest to fall head-over-heels for Jason Reitman’s third pic:
It was two years ago on Saturday night that Jason Reitman’s “Juno” had its world premiere here at Toronto. The standing ovation that night was the most spontaneous and joyous I can remember. Still vibrating, Reitman stood on the stage of the Ryerson Theater and vowed, “I’m gonna open all of my films right here in this theater at Toronto.” True to his word, his new film “Up in the Air” played the Ryerson at 6 p.m., Saturday–same time, same place.
It stars George Clooney in one of his best performances, as a frequent flyer. His ambition is to pass the 10 million-mile mark in the American Airlines Aadvantage Program, something very few ever do. Asked on an airplane where he lives, he replies, “Here.” He’s a Termination Facilitator. He fires people for a living. When corporations need to downsize quickly, he flies in and breaks the news to the new former employees. In a lousy economy, his business is great. ● More from: Roger Ebert’s Journal: Archives
