Trailer!: Moon

From the mind of David Bowie's kid (aka, Duncan Jones), Moon looks like Solaris, 2001, Saving Private Ryan and their pal existentialism all got together, had a couple glasses of wine and did things they only giggled about their girlfriends with in college. Plot-wise, Sam Rockwell is finishing up his three-year shift working on the moon ' dreaming about hanging with his fam and reflecting on his past dalliances. All is going great until he starts to lose it, especially after he literally confronts himself. Needless to say, this looks totally trippy and awesome, although I'm afraid it'll get too obtuse and into it's own what-the-fuck moments. Still, Sam Rockwell always pleases ' whether he's trying to be a movie star (Charlie's Angels, Matchstick Men) or essentially just playing himself (everything else). Moon hit Philly's fair shores during the recent PFF/Cinefest but I could never catch a screening. Anyone else see it? Whatchu think?
