This is an interesting one that I just had to post up, ANOTHER EARTH was first screened at Sundance and was then picked up by Fox Searchlight for distribution, it looks beautiful! I can only think that is the best word to describe it, also the story itself is definitely intriguing enough for me to stand up and go ‘I want to see this movie’.
In ANOTHER EARTH, Rhoda Williams (Brit Marling), a bright young woman accepted into MIT’s astrophysics program, aspires to explore the cosmos. A brilliant composer, John Burroughs (William Mapother), has just reached the pinnacle of his profession and is about to have a second child. On the eve of the discovery of a duplicate Earth, tragedy strikes and the lives of these strangers become irrevocably intertwined.
ANOTHER EARTH hits American cinemas in Limited release on the 22nd July, I really do hope we get to see it come down to Australia, but at the moment theres no plans.. Check out the trailer below and also a promotional picture.
