'Somewhere' Sometime Soon

This has to be the tease of all teasers but something tells me it will be worth it. Coming to a theatre near you... sometime in December (yes December - Wimbledon has only just begun which means I'm proudly six-months ahead of schedule!) is Sofia Coppola's latest cinematic offering, Somewhere. Starring Stephen Dorff and Elle Fanning, the trailer sets the scene for another atmospheric Coppola triumph and the scene, by the looks of it is on note at Hollywood hotspot, Chateau Marmont. The film's style continues in the same vein of the silent and somewhat awkward Lost In Translation which I've found people either loathed or loved - I'm for the latter and love Coppola's choice of locations and exquisite soundtracks which create the narrative free from crass and commercial visuals. French band Phoenix and American band The Strokes strum to the minimal beauty that will be Somewhere. It seems December just got a lot warmer...
