Alfonso Cuaron‘s Children of Men was an astonishing piece of work and the mystery and intrigue behind his new film Gravity made me pop it into the highest spot on my Most Anticipated Films of 2013 List. Starring George Clooney and Sandra Bullock as two solitary astronauts stuck on a damaged spacecraft, Gravity tells the story disaster in the worst possible location: space.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Cuaron’s work is his lengthy shots and Gravity is supposed to open with one breathtaking 17-minute long shot. If Cuaron is able to live up to hype and deliver a film on caliber with Children of Men, I’m sure Gravity will be one of the best the year has to offer.
The trailer is expected to float down to Earth tomorrow so this little teaser and poster will have to do for now:
