New Trailer And Poster For "Away We Go"

A brand new trailer and poster for Sam Mendes’ incredible new film ‘Away We Go’ has been released.

It hits the UK cinemas on the 18th September 2009 and is definitely a must see.

Directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes from an original screenplay by Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida, this funny and heartfelt film follows the journey of a young expectant couple called Burt and Verona (John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph)

They look to be living comfortably (he’s a vibrant insurance salesman, she’s a medical reference illustrator) albeit in a rundown house close to his parents in Denver. When Burt’s self-absorbed parents announce abruptly that they are moving to Antwerp before Verona’s due date, the young couple recognize an opportunity to travel across America to find a place they can settle down and start to develop their own roots.

Along the way, they have misadventures and find fresh connections with an assortment of relatives and old friends who just might help them discover “home” on their own terms for the first time.

The film also stars Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jeff Daniels and Catherine O’Hara and features the music of Alexi Murdoch whose tracks have been used on such hit US TV shows as Ugly Betty, The O.C and House. Take a look at the poster above (click to enlarge) and the trailer below:
