McAdams and Robbins in The Lucky Ones Trailer
One of my favourite films from a few years ago was Neil Burger’s The Illusionist. While I also loved the other film on magic from that same year, Burger’s film captured something truly mystical in his story and the fantastic Philip Glass score was icing on the cake.
Somewhere along the line I stopped looking to see what he was working on but thankfully, I didn’t completely forget. Mind you, with a cast like this one I doubt I would have overlooked this to begin with. Starring Rachel McAdams, Tim Robbins and Michael Peña The Lucky Ones is the story of three soldiers on leave after being injured in the Iraq War. They find themselves bound together in a cross country trip when the car rental company runs out of rentals. It’s not a new story and frankly, not even one I’m particularly interested in seeing but I love McAdams and Robbins and the duo certainly caught my attention. Add in the fact that Burger is directing and I’ll definitely see it, even if it doesn’t immediately jump out of the screen as a must see.
The Lucky Ones is scheduled to open on September 26th.
Trailer is tucked under the seat!
