The trailer for Rian Johnson’s The Brothers Bloom is now online via Yahoo.
“The Brothers Bloom (Mark Ruffalo, Oscar winner Adrien Brody) are the best con men in the world, swindling millionaires with complex scenarios of lust and intrigue. Now they’ve decided to take on one last job – showing a beautiful and eccentric heiress (Oscar winner Rachel Weisz) the time of her life with a romantic adventure that takes them around the world.”
Very cool. I am like a cat with kittens right now. Anyone that knows me, knows I loved Johnson’s first film Brick.
This time around, he has put together a very impressive cast for a film that looks to be something special.
Interestingly enough, Mr. Johnson seems to have mixed feelings about the trailer:
“Beyond the atrocious video quality, I’m honestly not sure how I feel about the trailer. It’s not a full representation of the movie by any means, and is much broader and goofier than the film tonally, but I guess trailers are never about being accurate, but about selling.”
The one thing that stands out, to me, is Rachel Weisz.

I agree, with the impressive cast, Rachel Weisz looks like a scene stealer. Great actress and hopefully a great movie.
I've not even heard of the film before seeing this. But I'm quite excited about watching it now, it looks like it'll be right up my street.
Rev,
If you have not seen Brick, get it!
You can pick up a used copy on Amazon UK for 2.19 pounds.
Brick is Rian's first film. A killer detective flick made for 500k.
