Director Doug Liman has had a pretty good track record. Since arriving into the scene with Swingers in 1996, he’s done some pretty attractive/good films. (Go, Bourne Identity, Mr. And Mrs. Smith, and Jumper). Liman’s next big screen story is Fair Game, starring Naomi Watts and Sean Penn. Fair Game will be release November 5th, 2010. Here’s the films synopsis and trailer.
Synopsis: Plame’s status as a CIA agent was revealed by White House officials allegedly out to discredit her husband after he wrote a 2003 New York Times op-ed piece saying that the Bush administration had manipulated intelligence about weapons of mass destruction to justify the invasion of Iraq.
The film’s plot seems intriguing. As far as the trailer goes, I’m not jumping out of my seat. I know Penn and Watts will deliver strong performances as always. So just for that, I’ll give it a try when it comes out. They never disappoint. It’s good to see them together once more – both gave tremendous performances in 2003’s 21 Grams.
What about you? What do you think about both actors? What about director Liman? You up for Fair Game?
