First ‘Tracks’ Trailer

Ever wanted to see Mia Wasikowska walk nearly 2,000 miles? Well now you can thanks to her latest drama, TRACKS. Admittedly there seems to be more than just walking to this true story of a young woman overcoming adversity. It sees Wasikowska decide, rather out of the blue judging by the trailer, that she will walk 2,000 miles from central Australia to the Indian Ocean. Along the way she meets photographer Rick Smolan (Adam Driver), and has some camels for company.

It’s not that I’m pessimistic about the film, but it certainly has trouble selling itself in the trailer. The use of the overused musical track and slow motion spinning/turning around to show the appreciation of nature’s beauty don’t exactly scream “WATCH ME!” But with the film being such a personal journey, the core will rely on the emotional context of events. Fingers crossed the journey will be as beautiful as the locales used. With John Curran, the man responsible for the fantastic THE PAINTED VEIL, directing, it should at least be worth a gander.

TRACKS is yet to receibe a release date. It stars Mia Wasikowska, Adam Driver, Emma Booth, Rainer Bock, Jessica Tovey, Melanie Zanetti, and Robert Coleby.

    The fact that Mia Wasikowska is such a sensitive, wonderful actor is the biggest reason I will see this film. Also, the book was fascinating.
