Speaking of excellent flicks

In light of the Alice in Wonderland trailer that I posted last night, Abbie--my excellence advisor-- urged me to post the trailer for another highly anticipated children's book adaptation, Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are. You may have already seen it, but it's so perfect that I don't mind making you watch it again 

I also thought I'd mention that that one of my favorite Montreal bands, indie-rockers the Arcade Fire, re-recorded their song, "Wake Up", for use in the trailer/movie. I'm not a particularly weepy person, but I find that its presence in the trailer is all kinds of moving and inspirational-- when the music swells and the big monster is crying and it's so sweet and.... and.... jesus, I need to pull it together. 

Anyway, if you're feeling the song and don't already have it in your music library, click the iTunes link below and spend the $1.10 to support them.
