Fused Film : ''On The Road'' Trailer - The beat generation lives on through Garrett Hedlund

Fused Film : ''On The Road'' Trailer - The beat generation lives on through Garrett Hedlund

Walter Salles’ adaption of Jack Kerouac’s scrolling story On the Road finally has a trailer. The film stars Garrett Hedlund as Dean Moriarty (aka the book’s fictionalized version of Neal Cassady), Sam Riley as Sal Paradise (Kerouac’s fictional alter-ego) and Kristen Stewart as Marylou.

Nearly after a year since the movie went into production, On the Road quietly disappeared, leaving many to wonder what would become of the movie itself. Now a new poster has popped up, and the trailer is encompassed by every element of the beat generation. The music, the poetry, the aimless traveling. Nearly all of that is covered by the voice-over work and powerful jazz music.

I am starting to get a sense that this movie was completely a long time ago and its been sitting on the shelf. For one thing Garrett Hedlund looks really good in the movie, and this was before he signed on for the Coen Brothers’ Finding Llwyen Davis.

The same goes for Kristen Stewart. Any part of me that wrote her off as a good actress is gone. She seems capable and more spirited than in any of her previous performances. Overall, this is a one movie that I will definitely add to my must watch list.

Facebook has the trailer.

"Just after his father’s death, Sal Paradise, an aspiring New York writer, meets Dean Moriarty, a devastatingly charming ex-con, married to the very liberated and seductive Marylou. Sal and Dean bond instantly. Determined not to get locked in to a constricted life, the two friends cut their ties and take to the road with Marylou. Thirsting for liberty, the three young people head off in search of the world, of other encounters, and of themselves."
