Japanese Trailer For Neil Gaiman's HOW TO TALK TO EARTH GIRLS AT PARTIES with Elle Fanning
This Japanese trailer for the feature film adaptation of Neil Gaiman's short story How To Talk To Girls At Parties is the first full trailer that I've seen for the movie. It looks like the story has made for a great and charming movie. It was directed by John Cameron Mitchell (Nurse Jackie) and has a great cast that includes Elle Fanning, Alex Sharp, Nicole Kidman, and Ruth Wilson.
The story is set in the an "exotic and unusual world: suburban London in the late 70s. Under the spell of the Sex Pistols, every teenager in the country wants to be a punk, including our hopeless hero Enn. Hearing the local punk Queen Boadicea is throwing a party, Enn crashes the fun and discovers every horny boy's dream; gorgeous foreign exchange students. When he meets the enigmatic Zan, it's lust at first sight. But these girls have come a lot further than America. They are, in fact, aliens from another galaxy, sent to Earth to prepare for a mysterious rite of passage. When the dark secret behind the rite is revealed, our galaxy-crossed lover Enn must turn to Boadicea and her punk followers for help in order to save the alien he loves from certain death. The punks take on the aliens on the streets of London, and neither Enn nor Zan's universe will ever be the same again."
The movie is set to be released sometime next year in 2018. Check out the trailer and let us know if it looks like a good adaptation of the story.
