First trailer for Baz Luhrmann's Australia
We have the first trailer for Baz Luhrmann's (Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge, Strictly Ballroom)epic outback project Australia posted over at apple. You can check it out in regular or HD quality here.
This trailer is a great little trailer for what is sure to be a great little film. What is interesting however is that it doesn't feature the usual dazzle that Luhrmann is known for. Is it possible he has finally made a calm (yet still strikingly beautiful - look at those colors - so vivid) film that doesn't seem like a 4th grader with ADD who had 8 cups of coffee for breakfast directed? Now, let it be known that I'm a huge fan of the hyperactive visual stimulus of his other films and I'll be there in my seat when this one drops November 14th. But I can't help to wonder how this will stand up against his other films with a recognizable style.
