This week we've been given new glimpses into two potential Oscar potential films. For starters, there's Gone Girl from acclaimed director David Fincher which starts Ben Affleck as Nick Dunne, a husband suspected of killing his wife after she disappears with very little evidence. Based on the Gillian Flynn novel of the same name, Gone Girl's latest trailer solidifies the early hype.
The second feature is Exodus: Gods and Kings from Ridley Scott. Although Scott has struggled to regain his awards season stature of late with recent flops such as The Counselor and Robin Hood, perhaps this biblical tale will get him back on track. Christian Bale stars in Scott's retelling of the story of Moses and how he guided the Israelite slaves from Egypt. The visuals appear impressive and if the interpretation is strong enough, perhaps Ridley Scott and Bale will flourish throughout this winter's award season.
