CBS Films has released a second trailer for their interesting looking drama, The Words. It's got an impressive cast that includes Bradley Cooper, Jeremy Irons, Zoe Saldana, Dennis Quaid, Olivia Wilde, Ben Barnes, John Hannah, Nora Arnezeder, and J.K. Simmons

The story follows a young writer named Rory Jansen "who finally achieves long sought after literary success after publishing the next great American novel. There's only one catch - he didn't write it.  As the past comes back to haunt him and his literary star continues to rise, Jansen is forced to confront the steep price that must be paid for stealing another man's work, and for placing ambition and success above life's most fundamental three words."

Ben had a chance to see the movie at Sundance and said, "As expected, the film brings up questions of ownership, identity, and the guilt associated with living a lie. It's all pretty basic stuff, and though it's all well-executed, it all feels very predictable. For me, it felt like a movie from the mid-90s that you'd watch at 2 in the afternoon on Starz."

The movie is set to be released on September 21st, and I'm interested in checking it out. The trailer got my attention. Watch it for yourself and let us know if you think it looks good!
