Run Lola Run director Tom Twyker teams up with The Matrix creators Lana and Andy Wachowski to bring us Cloud Atlas, based on the book by David Mitchell. A series of six interconnected stories, the film jumps from various times zones, from the 19th century to a dystopion far future, with an impressive collection of actors, including Tom Hanks, Hugo Waving, Hugh Grant, Jim Broadbent, Halle Berry, and Susan Sarandon, playing multiple roles. A 6 minute (yes, 6 minutes) has hit, and while not the most easy to follow, it is visually stunning and promises some great character moments from the ensemble cast.
Synopsis: An exploration of how the actions of individual lives impact one another in the past, present and future, as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero, and an act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution.
Released: 26th October 2012 (U.S.)/ ? (U.K./IRL)
