The "Revolutionary Road" trailer shows Kate and Leo's unhappily ever after

Frankly, I thought the iceberg was the best bit of that Titanic movie...

It looks like a pretty interesting story and of course it's Kate Winslet, I'll probably end up seeing it. Lately I've been really attracted to anything 1900s-60s so this fits right into the mix.

Sure the trailer doesn't look to have as much angst as American Beauty but it looks angsty enough for Leo and Kate. I can't really see them being tremendously angry with each other; their chemistry looks to have kept up nicely. Hopefully it won't disappoint.

If it's anything similar to 'Far from Heaven' it will be worth it despite not having the dark humor of 'American Beauty'.

I think this film is going to have a dark twist that isn't revealed in the trailer just yet.  There is something else going on, I'd be curious to research the book its based on.  If, you know, I didn't have a ton of other more pressing research to be doing. 

Kathryn Hahn and Kathy Bates are news worthy cast members to me.  I mean Kathy rocks anything she does, and we know she has great chemistry with Leo from Titanic as well.  I've been in love with Kathryn since she first appeared as Lily on Crossing Jordan years ago.  I saw her on Broadway and my love has not waned.  I hope she has a decent role.  I'm tired of her being the sidekick girlfriend in romantic comedies.  I'm guessing which role she plays, but will not share as it could be spoilerish. 

Yes, I went and researched the book.  It received high praise from Kurt Vonnegut and Tennesse Williams.  You don't get much better than that in reviews.  Here's hoping the movie does the same.

I blame Kate Winslet in Titanic for making me gay, so I'll watch anything she's in. :D I like Leo too, and Mendes can be a great director. So I'm excited.

Titanic was my favourite film for many years (mostly because Kate looked so damn fine in that big hat, heh) so I'm very happy to see them reunite.

Set in the 1950s, kate winslet, leonardo dicaprio, dramatic, and about "weight of societal expectations." Yeah, I can't wait to see this!

Did anyone else notice in the trailer there was sex in a car with a hand sliding on the window? And they said this wasn't going to be like Titanic...

sounds boring to me, boring and angst filled

but that movie could be about my life.  Married to a guy, living in the suburbs, 2 kids but miserable.  Hmm, should I go see it so I can salivate over Kate but risk having flashbacks to my own married life?  Or wait and rent the DVD when I can fast-forward to the "good" parts, whatever that may be? 

Why send flowers when you can send sex in a basket?

I discovered Richard Yates when I was in grad school, and loved him. He's a realist - doesn't sugarcoat anything, but his character portrayals and stories have great depth and resonance. RR is a brilliant novel, albeit very bleak. I am curious how loyal they will be to the book. The ending is staggering - and controversial, for its time and even today. Kate is my favorite actress, so I am thrilled that she's taken on April Wheeler. I think Leo will be good, too, and Kathy Bates is superbly cast in her role, I can't wait. And let's hope it delivers Kate that long-awaited statue - it's about time!

i'm watching it! i love winslet, she's such a great actress and incredibly  beautiful.

Anyone else think that Kate looks a tad Madonna-ish??

Movie sounds good though, I might check it out when it's in cinemas here....Which will be like, 6 months after the premiere :P

ahh, memories. i was 12 and overwhelmed by the emotions in titanic. now i am older and harder to impress, but i guess this movie is better too.

 I want to see this movie!It's a very nice reunion of these 2 in the main roles in this film :)

I remember how excited I was before watching "Titanic".I was 14 or 15 and I was a fan of Leonardo DiCaprio then :P I didn't "discover" then yet that I was gay lol but I liked Kate Winslet as well-ahem,that painting scene when she posed to Jack,ahem :"> No doubt she's a very talented actress and an attractive woman :)

I'm looking forward to watching "Revolutionary road"!

I love both Kate and Leo though I must confess I was never a big fan of Titanic. But this movie looks really promising. I might pick up the book before...

Btw isn't that Nina Simone singing in the trailer? I think it is "Wild is the wind", isn't it? I just love her music.

It's a new dawn. It's a new day. It's a new life. And I'm feeling good.

Saw the comments above about car scene in  "RR" trailer reminding others of car scene in Titanic

 I've read the book ,and the guy in the car scene is NOT Leo's Frank , so it won't be a 'titanic trip down memory lane' with Jack and Rose (put your hands on me )  after all :)
