Meryl Streep Enlists Carey Mulligan and Helena Bonham-Carter in "Suffragette" Trailer

After the very short teaser we received a few months ago, team "Suffragette" is back with an undeniably powerful trailer.

The trailer does an amazing job at introducing the main players (Bonham-Carter, Mulligan, Annie Marie Duff, among others) while hinting at Streep's turn as Feminist legend Emmeline Pankhurst. There's a gorgeous reworking of Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide" towards the end, and a very affecting line by Carey's character: "War is the only language men listen to."

If you were underestimating the potential of "Suffragette" in the Oscar race, think again. Methinks this will be a very strong play for Mulligan, Bonham-Carter, Streep and the film itself.

Watch the trailer below. "Suffragette" will open the London Film Festival and will be released in the states on October 23.
