The first thing that should strike you is the director... Sam Mendes . This guy came into his own with American Beauty , and overcame the "sophomore slump" with Road To Perdition . Now he's got another great script and a great cast to back him again.

Check out these names:

-Jake Gyllenhaal (Donnie Darko, October Sky)
-Jamie Foxx  (Ray, Collateral)
-Peter Sarsgaard  (Garden State, The Salton Sea)
-Chris Cooper  (Adaptation, Seabiscuit)
-Sam Rockwell  (Confessions of A Dangerous Mind, Matchstick Men)
-Lucas Black  (Friday Night Lights, Sling Blade)

.. and that's just mentioning a few names.

Watch the trailer above and let me know what you think, and what (in your opinion) is an early nominee pick for 2006's Best Film of the Year.

I read the book this movie is based on. If this movie isn't nearly rated NC-17, it won't be worth it. The story will have strayed too far. I agree that it should be one of the best of next year, though.
