POSTERS and DARKER TERRITORY


We saw it and just plain dug its whole 1940's retro-vibe and decided to post it.

The film in question, based on Joseph Kanon's novel THE GOOD GERMAN takes place amidst the still smoldering ruins of post-WWII Berlin, and apparently involves a U.S. Army war correspondent named Jake Geismar (a slimmed down from his turn in SYRIANA George Clooney) who becomes involved with a woman named Lena Brandt (a hopefully taking a break from her standard overacting shtick Cate Blanchett), a former lover with a missing husband who's the objective of a manhunt by both the Russian and American armies. Mystery and Intrigue mounts as Geismar tries to uncover secrets Brandt may be hiding in a desperate attempt to get herself and her husband out of Berlin.

It will also include Tully (Spiderman himself Tobey Maguire), as an American soldier with black market connections assigned to chauffer Geismar around Berlin.
