Mirror, Mirror: Featurette & trailers for Tarsem‘s the Lilly Collins & Julia Roberts Snow White film...

Well the reception the film got from the internet crowd was pretty awful; but I’ve seen the trailer for this film, in the cinema, and it always gets s very warm reception.  It has appeal to both lder women and kids and has an entirely different set of selling points to the more highly anticipated ‘Snow White & The huntsman’. (Something which is good for both films, although I anticipate more crossover appeal than some people imagine.)

Featurette...

The international trailer and the “Snow Spell” trailer are certainly more appealing than the first one, but it remains to be seen if Relativity can win back those lost after that original misstep. Of course, if my personal experience is anything to go by, they may have enough of an audience without the snark brigade. (Yes I too was not overly impressed with trailer number 1.)

International trailer...


Synopsis...
“Mirror Mirror is a spectacular reimagining of the classic fairy tale starring Oscar® winner Julia Roberts as the Queen, Lily Collins (The Blind Side) as Snow White, Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as Prince Alcott, Sean Bean ("The Game of Thrones", The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King) as the King and Nathan Lane (The Lion King, The Birdcage) as the Queen's hapless and bungling servant, Brighton.

An evil queen steals control of a kingdom and an exiled princess enlists the help of seven resourceful rebels to win back her birthright in a spirited adventure comedy filled with jealousy, romance and betrayal that will capture the imagination of audiences the world over.

Visionary director Tarsem Singh (Immortals) rewrites fairy tale history as a wicked enchantress (Roberts) schemes and scrambles for control of a spirited orphan's (Collins) throne and the attention of a charming prince (Hammer). When Snow White's beauty wins the heart of the prince that she desperately pursues, the Queen banishes her to the forest, where a ravening man-eating beast hungrily awaits.

Rescued by a band of diminutive highway robbers, Snow White grows into an indomitable young woman determined to take back her realm from the treacherous Queen. With the support of her subjects, she roars into action in an epic battle that blends spectacle, magic and contemporary humor in Singh's signature, jaw-dropping visual style.”

Immensely overshadowed by Snow White & The Huntsman at almost very turn, Mirror, Mirror has almost become a little bit of an afterthought as everyone prepares to see if the Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth & Kristen Stewart film will become the epic trilogy starter it hopes to be. Julia Roberts & Co. May yet surprise a few. The film begins its run on the 16th of March...
