Interestingly, there was a movie of the same title that was released in 2008. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=trumbo.htm

This is a misdirection. Bryan Cranston will actually die 1/3rds through the movie only to be replaced by the charmingly talented Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

What's the film about?

[kayumanggi]

BOM doesn't have the details yet but it seems it's a biopic.

What's the film about?

 

It's the Asylum knockoff of the new Tim Burton Dumbo film.

 

Ok, it's probably a biopic of screenwriter Dalton Trumbo.

 

EDIT: kayumanggi beat me to it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalton_Trumbo

 

 

 

James Dalton Trumbo (December 9, 1905 – September 10, 1976) was an American screenwriter and novelist. As one of the Hollywood Ten, he refused to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in 1947 during the committee's investigation of Communist influences in the motion picture industry. Trumbo won two Academy Awards while blacklisted; one was originally given to a front writer, and one was awarded to "Robert Rich", Trumbo's pseudonym.^[1][2]

 

Blacklisting effectively ended in 1960 when it lost credibility. Trumbo was publicly given credit for two blockbuster films: Otto Preminger made public that Trumbo wrote the screenplay for the smash hit, Exodus,^[3] and Kirk Douglas publicly announced that Trumbo was the screenwriter of Spartacus.^[4] Further, President John F. Kennedy crossed picket lines to see the movie.^[5][6]

 

On December 19, 2011, the Writers Guild of America announced that Trumbo was given full credit for his work on the screenplay of the 1953 romantic comedy Roman Holiday, sixty years after the fact.^[7][8]

Don't you mean "the wickedly-talented Adele Dazeem".

Rated R for language including some sexual references.

Just by looking at the logos at the start of the trailer and the directors other works, I know for sure that thing will SUCK.

There might be some nominations for acting, but the movie itself is gonna be weak as hell.

Early buzz a few months back wasn't too hot so I'm not really anticipating this. Cranston looks pretty good in it though.

[Empire]

I am sure the acting will be good or even great, but I am not really looking forward to this much at all. Looks kind of boring.

[Plain Old Tele]

It's a great story -- the movie looks decent and I hope it's great.

[BK007]

Elle Fanning seems to have a much better head on her shoulders than Dakota ever did.

 

Poor Dakota. 

[grim22]

Bryan Cranston wants that Oscar to become a EOT winner. Look for his spoken word album next year to win the grammy as well.

I like Jay Roach. Didn't know he directed this.
