Paul Haggis is back with something that looks much more thrilling than the borderline terrible In The Valley of Elah. It is a remake of the 2007 French film Pour Elle, directed by Fred Cavayé. The Haggis version stars Russell Crowe, Elizabeth Banks, Liam Neeson, Brian Dennehy and Olivia Wilde. Check out the trailer below via Yahoo.
Synopsis: Life seems perfect for John Brennan until his wife, Lara, is arrested for a gruesome murder she says she didn’t commit. Three years into her sentence, John is struggling to hold his family together, raising their son and teaching at college while he pursues every means available to prove her innocence. With the rejection of their final appeal, Lara becomes suicidal and John decides there is only one possible, bearable solution: to break his wife out of prison. Refusing to be deterred by impossible odds or his own inexperience, John devises an elaborate escape plot and plunges into a dangerous and unfamiliar world, ultimately risking everything for the woman he loves.
The Next Three Days hits theaters November 19th, 2010.
