The Master Theatrical Trailer



With only three months to go until this movie's release date, I'm glad to finally have a theatrical trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson's latest work since 2007's excellent 'There Will Be Blood.' The movie features the return of Joaquin Phoenix to the big screen following a hiatus lasting over 2 years and a charismatic leader called 'Lancaster Dodd' (Philip Seymour Hoffman), who sets up his own religious movement, or 'cult' in the 1950's.

The Master is looking absolutely incredible, featuring the ever haunting score of Johnny Greenwood. Considering the troubled movie landscape this year, it would be nice to get one solid movie on the books. The movie has already started to generate controversy with the group it's supposed to be loosely based on, Scientology. So much so that Paul Thomas Anderson has had to screen it for the likes of Tom Cruise to assuage their concerns. Initial reports seem to state that he wasn't thrilled with what he saw, so let's wait and see. You can check out the movie poster after the break.
