Babel
I want to see Babel, the new film by Alejandro González Iñárritu who directed Amores Perros and 21 Grams.
It features, among others Brad Pitt, Gael García Bernal and Clifton Collins Jr.
"Tragedy strikes a married couple on vacation in the Moroccan desert, touching off an interlocking story involving six different families."
The user comments on IMDB seem very positive, which would indicate to me that it is as good as it seems from the trailer.
here's an extract from one user comment I found encouraging:
If you – like me, and so many others – found 'Crash' (2005) offensively finger-wagging and dumb (its inherent message was: "Racism is bad."), Alejandro González Iñárritu's Babel will make it up to you with refreshing intelligence, respect for cultures and crisp acting. The plot outline is difficult to do justice in one sentence but much like Crash it explores culture clashes in life by navigating multiple interweaving story lines.
Check out the trailer.
But there's no sign of it in the cinemas according to Entertainment.ie and I can't see any Irish release date on the IFTN website...
Meh. Anyone know anything about an Irish release date?
