TRAILER: Bubble
January 11th, 2006 by Cinema Eye
Hitting the web today is the first trailer for Steven Soderbergh’s BUBBLE. This is a strange but very cool trailer that almost works as a short film on it’s own right.
BUBBLE is going to be part of a pretty interesting experiment in that it will be available on DVD and via HDNET on the same day it is released in theaters. It will be very interesting to see how this release experiment plays out. It could have a huge impact on the way movies are released in the future.
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS:
BUBBLE is the story of an unlikely love triangle at a doll factory in a small midwestern town that has fallen on hard times. Lonely and isolated, long time employees Martha and Kyle have become friends by default in spite of their drastic age difference, but their dynamic is upset by the arrival of a new worker: young, attractive single mother Rose. As Martha grows increasingly wary about Rose’s dubious character, she discovers Kyle and Rose developing a relationship of their own.
One morning, Rose is found dead, strangled in her own home. An investigation begins, one that will call into question our established assumptions about these characters and life in their small town. Featuring a cast of non-professional actors from the Ohio location, Soderbergh brings this tragic story of characters striving to establish and maintain meaningful connections to life with startling realism.
