On The Road (Blu-ray)

February 25, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Sam Riley, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Stewart, Tom Sturridge, Viggo Mortensen
Director: Walter Salles
Running Time: 124 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: February 25th 2013

It’s taken a long, long time to get On The Road onto the screen. Francis Ford Coppola bought the rights in 1979 (and that’s ignoring even earlier attempts, some involving Jack Kerouac himself) and has been trying to make it ever since.

New On The Road Trailer Drives In

September 3, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A new look at Walter Salles’ adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s classic has arrived, so we can get another hint at the tone of the film and it’s rather sepia colour palette. The film follows Sal Paradise (Sam Riley), an aspiring New York writer who meets Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund), a devastatingly charming ex-con, who’s married to the very liberated and seductive Marylou (Kristen Stewart). 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. It’s currently due out on the UK on October 12th.

There’s been a lot of talk about Walter Salles’ adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s classic On The Road, with many suggesting it shouldn’t be made into a film, others being wary about the cast, while many have been avidly looking forward to it. Now the first trailer has arrives, so we can get a hint at the tone of the film and it’s rather sepia colour palette. However, its difficult to tell from this whether the movie will retain the strong homoerotic undertones of the book.
