"Blindness" Trailer"

Jose Saramago’s book “Blindness” is one of our favorites in recent memory. We’re excited to hear there’s going to be a movie:

When a sudden plague of blindness devastates a city, a small group of the afflicted band together to triumphantly overcome the horrific conditions of their imposed quarantine. BLINDNESS, starring Academy Award-nominee Julianne Moore, Gael Garcia Bernal, Mark Ruffalo, Sandra Oh and Danny Glover, is a psychological thriller about the fragility of mankind. Adapted from Nobel Laureate Jose Saramago’s masterwork, the film is directed by Academy Award-nominee Fernando Meirelles (‚”City of God”) from a screenplay by Tony Award-winner Don McKellar (‚”The Drowsy Chaperone”).

It’s slotted for release this Fall. Check out the new Blindness trailer here.
In other movie news, we’re also excited about HBO’s “Recount,” which premieres this month. Despite her lack of boobage, we can’t imagine better casting than Laura Dern for the role of Katherine Harris. Watch the trailer after the jump.
