It looks like the folks over at Entertainment Tonight are trying to get into the ‘movie exclusives’ business because they’re providing us with the first look at LIONS FOR LAMBS, a film that boasts more star power than Alpha Centauri. It stars Tom Cruise as a senator, Meryl Streep as a reporter, and Robert Redford, who directed the film, as a college professor. The film examines their connections to a military crisis in Afghanistan. It’s the first United Artists film in the Cruise/Wagner era, after the star was essentially fired from Paramount. I don’t know if this clip was cut by the filmmakers, but whoever did it, it looks pretty cheesy, especially with Mary Hart or Jann Carl’s (I used to be a fan) ‘enthusiastic’ voiceover. Maybe ET should stick to telling us where Christina Aguilera buys berets for her dogs, and leave the movie exclusives for the big boys (us).
