Seven Swords
Six Stills From John Hillcoat’s THE ROAD
Posted by Todd Brown at 7:46pm.
Posted in Film News , Drama, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, USA & Canada.
Let’s put the Cormac McCarthy and Viggo Mortensen factors aside for a moment. You see, I don’t need them to get excited about John Hillcoat’s upcoming feature film The Road. All I need is Hillcoat himself. I absolutely adore Hillcoat’s bleak western The Proposition - my review here - and the simple fact that he’s working on anything at all, never mind a film based on such good source material with such a good cast, is more than enough to make Todd a happy boy. Making Todd even happier? USA Today have run a profile on the film, a grimly realistic look at life after an apocalyptic event, and ran an even half dozen brand new stills from the feature with it. No worries about Hillcoat softening his approach to satisfy the Hollywood suits financing this one. Nope.

The Proposition was a superb and overlooked film and these stills look really promising. This is a match made in cinematic heaven for sure.

Great. Another Cormac McCarthy year. Ah well:)

Strangely enough, when I read The road, in my head I actually saw either Christian Bale or Viggo Mortensen as the father. I’m really looking forward to this movie.

Looks suitably bleak. I actually got thirsty and dizzy when I watched the Propostiion. Hope I don’t get irradiated and murderous when I see this.
