Trailer Tuesday: Blue Jasmine (2013)

As you will soon come to discover on this blog, I love Woody Allen films. After studying his work at university, I am forever interested in what his next film will be, who will star and where it will be set. So, for the first edition of Trailer Tuesday, I have selected Blue Jasmine.

The film sees upper class Jasmine (Cate Blanchett) as her marriage and life is falling apart. The New York socialite travels to San Francisco to stay with her working class sister in a not-so-elegant abode to try and piece her life back together again.

The film has won rave reviews in America since its release on 26th July, with David Denby from The New Yorker claiming that it is the ‘strongest, most resonant movie Woody Allen has made in years’ and Rotten Tomatoes giving the film a certified ‘Fresh’ rating of 87%. There’s already an Oscar buzz around Blue Jasmine for Cate Blanchett’s performance which looks tremendous in this trailer.

After I was left rather disappointed with Allen’s last film, To Rome with Love (2012), I’m looking forward to seeing this new film. Hopefully I’ll be raving about it when it’s released in the UK on 27th September.
