TIFF 2010: U.S Trailer For Tamara Drewe

Yahoo have just premiered online the American trailer for Stephen Frears (The Queen) adaptation of the Posy Simmonds’ graphic novelof the same name. The movie stars Gemma Arterton, Dominic Cooper, Roger Allem, Bill Camp, Tamsin Craig and Luke Evans.

The new trailer isnt too dissimilar to the UK trailer and you do like the cheerfully British style comedy with a rural feel to it you may like this it does have a charm to it and though it wont be a comedy classic it does has a few laughable moment to keep purist interested.

The movie is due release on September 10th with USA release October 8th but before then the movie will make its north american premiere at the toronto film festival in September.

Based on Posy Simmonds’ beloved graphic novel of the same name (which was itself inspired by Thomas Hardy’s classic Far From the Madding Crowd), this wittily modern take on the romantic English pastorale is a far cry from Hardy’s Wessex. Tamara Drewe’s present-day English countryside-stocked with pompous writers, rich weekenders, bourgeois bohemians, a horny rock star, and a great many Buff Orpington chickens and Belted Galloway cows-is a much funnier place. When Tamara Drewe sashays back to the bucolic village of her youth, life for the locals is thrown tail over teakettle. Tamara-once an ugly duckling-has been transformed into a devastating beauty (with help from plastic surgery). As infatuations, jealousies, love affairs and career ambitions collide among the inhabitants of the neighboring farmsteads, Tamara sets a contemporary comedy of manners into play using the oldest magic in the book-sex appeal.
