After single-handedly solving deep-seated global racism with his profound race relations masterpiece CRASH, expert racial deconstructor Paul Haggis is now setting his sights on exposing profound truths of the Iraq War with his upcoming directorial effort IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH. In it, Tommy Lee Jones stars as a military officer who’s investigating the mysterious disappearance of his son (played by Jonathan Tucker) soon after he returns from Iraq. The all-star cast includes Susan Sarandon as Jones’ wife, Charlize Theron as a fellow officer Jones enlists to aid in the search and James Franco, Josh Brolin and Jason Patric as…other dudes. Unless you’re prepared to handle absolute truth and a potentially devastating insight into the human condition, watch the recently released trailer HERE. The film opens September 21st.
