ME AND ORSEN WELLES and a Domestic Trailer

As one of the secret screenings from this year’s South by Southwest Film Festival, I am still kicking myself for not making time to see Richard Linklater’s latest, ‘Me and Orson Welles.’  The film stars Zac Efron as a student who works his way into a secondary role in the then 22-year-old Welles’ stage adaptation of “Julius Caesar.”  The film also stars Christian McKay as Welles, Claire Danes, Ben Chaplin, Kelly Reilly, Eddie Marsan, Leo Bill, Imogen Poots and Aidan McArdle.

Today, courtesy of Yahoo! Movies, we have the domestic trailer for the film.

Check it out:

The film looks very poignant, and it could be just the role that breaks Efron out of the ‘High School Musical’ game and into some real acting roles.  McKay looks brilliant, as well.

‘Me and Orson Welles’ opens on November 25th.
