New UK trailer for 'A Most Wanted Man' is gripping. A visual treat.

Directed by an assured Anton Corbijn. Shot by Benoît Delhomme, who created some lovely imagery. Especially like how Philip Seymour Hoffman looks in the final shot of the trailer. Vulnerable in a strange way, aloof, yet dangerous. The beauty and subtlety in the color of the leaves contrasts with the character's choice of clothing -- a tie that's too purple and tied too short with stripes that are angled the wrong way, a weird green coat that's not quite long enough, and posture that conveys a stubborn aggressiveness yet (to me) suggests an impotence -- all set against a too-cool color palette with a subject that is not centered yet whose placement does not adhere to the rule of thirds. The effect is unsettling, and achieved, obviously, without dialogue.

I have to see this movie just to find out what happens in this scene.

Can't take my eyes off this. Great trailer. Must-see movie.

Tense, Crafted

Impressive. Watching this trailer you become almost as engrossed, within a couple minutes, as you do when watching full-length features.

Glowing Clip/Trailer for 'A Most Wanted Man'

What strikes is the cinematography by Benoît Delhomme. He shot 'Lawless', '1408', and 'The Proposition' all of which have a visual presence. His frame is structured yet breathes. He captures images that convey a sense of narrative -- something most shooters try for but few actually get.

Directed by Anton Corbijn who has a way with non-verbal storytelling, but handles the delivery of dialogue well. Written by Andrew Bovell from the novel by John le Carré.

With Robin Wright, Rachel McAdams, Daniel Brühl, and Philip Seymour Hoffman who looks fantastic in the clip/trailer below.

I can only hope this lives up to its potential. If it does it's must-see. However, if it doesn't it's still pretty much must-see.
