Atonement Trailer
Yes the trailer is out...well at least I think its the trailer...whatever it is...we finally get to view the clips of the movie. You can check out the trailer here. I think it looks great. The shots, the scenery and the house...or issit a mansion...wasn't it gorgeous. The young girl who plays the young Briony kinda looks like Romal Garai who is playing the older Briony...and I think they will play the character well. I've said this once and I'll say it again...I just don't see Keira Knightley as Cecilia...Its been a long time since I've read Atonement...but I mean... was Cecilia supposed to be stick thin and always pouting...I don't think so.
Anyway the scenes that I'm really want to see are the scenes leading up the accusation like the fuss with the play, the dinner, the hunt for the attacker...where the course of the future is changed. It would be interesting too to see all the other important characters on screen such as Lola and the twins. Can't wait for it to be released.

Yes, the novel explicitly tells us that Cecilia is thin and small breasted.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it mentions pouting, but then there's no pouting in the trailer either.
"Its been a long time since I've read Atonement"
ReplyDeleteWell like I said....so I guess I can't remember much of the detail...as for the pouting...its just Keira's lips...to me...they always seem like they're pouting.
So your objection has to do with your general dislike of the physical appearance of the actress and not how she fits the character as described in the novel. :-)
ReplyDeleteFair enough.
James McAvoy is physically very far from the Robbie Turner described in the book, but I don't think that matters much. This story isn't really driven by what the characters look like.
