OZ Attacks!- Animal Kingdom Trailer

A series of Australian film are making a hell of a buzz this year, on the festival circuit as well as the film blog realm. If in the previous years there was a wave of spine-chillers from New Zeeland and Australia now film-makers from down-under have embraced a genre they haven't been renowned from: the crime-thriller. Animal Kingdom impressed at Cannes Film Market, was appreciated at Sundance and looks like it will get a fall release in the US. Plot: born in a family of criminals, the main character is forced to make a choice between being loyal to the family and go to prison or rat on his own brothers, with the promise of a crime-free life. The Darwinistic words of wisdom from Guy Pierce's character make me believe this a Scorsese-scale gem in the making. Weak point: the trailer has a touch of the cheesy through it's use of Air Supply's soap-fest 'All Out of Love' but hey, the world has run out of epic rock anthems to feature in trailers maybe.
