Colin Firth, Orlando Bloom, Amber Tamblyn & Patricia Clarkson in the MAIN STREET Trailer

From Magnolia Pictures, here’s the first trailer for MAIN STREET starring Colin Firth, Ellen Burstyn, Patricia Clarkson, Amber Tamblyn and Orlando Bloom. The story itself, as presented in the trailer, feels moderately strong but doesn’t quite set it’s hooks into my attention. However, the Academy Award-winning duo of Colin Firth and Ellen Burstyn are what stole my interest. If MAIN STREET is a success, it will likely be on their shoulders.

Synopsis:

Several residents of a small Southern city whose lives are changed by the arrival of a stranger with a controversial plan to save their decaying hometown. In the midst of today’s challenging times, each of the colorful citizens of this close-knit North Carolina community, will search for ways to reinvent themselves, their relationships and the very heart of their neighborhood

MAIN STREET will be in theaters September 9, 2011 and On Demand August 5th. Visit the film’s official site: MainStreetTheMovie.com and “Like” it on Facebook.
