JourneywomanA "Promising" Oscar Vehicle for Naomi Watts
August 28th 2007 05:00
Naomi Watts most promising vehicle so far
Perhaps this will change with her next major movie. Due for a limited October 25 release Down Under, Eastern Promises is the story of a Russian mafia family in London who are threatened when a young midwife, Anna Khitrova (Watts), begins to delve into the background of a fourteen year-old girl who died in child birth.
Watts co-stars with the chrismatic Viggo Mortensen and brilliant German actor Armin Mueller-Stahl
The presence of Armin Mueller-Stahl and Miss Watts, however, says a great deal for this picture. More importantly it has to its advantage a killer trailer and what looks like a series of brilliant performances by a well chosen ensemble cast. With a release on the horizon and an up and coming Australian actress in what could be the role of her career so far, Eastern Promises is worth a look.
