Extended US trailer of Darren Aronofsky's 'The Fountain'.
© 2006 Warner Bros. All rights reserved.
Spanning over one thousand years, and three parallel stories, 'The Fountain' is a bold story of love, death, spirituality, and the fragility of our existence in this world.
The movie has been in production for some considerable time, only finally wrapping earlier this year. In early 2002, writer/director Darren Aronofsky ('Pi', 'Requiem For A Dream') cast Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett in the central leads of Tom and Izzi with a budget of $75 million. During pre-production, Pitt and Aronofsky were having major creative differences, so Pitt left to film 'Troy' instead and the film was shut down. In early 2004, with a smaller budget of $40 million, Aronofsky cast Hugh Jackman as Tom, and his wife Rachel Weisz replaced Blanchett as Izzi.
This movie will be unlike anything you have ever seen before, and I urge you to go and see it when released in the UK early next year (it has an October release in the USA)
