Angelina Jolie's Unbroken Leaps Ahead to Become Our Oscar Frontrunner

Any project Angelina Jolie committed herself to as director would receive an instant laurel of prestige. Throw in WWII, sweeping music, epic cinematography and being based on a true story and you have a film that seems destined for Oscar glory.

We've already discussed why Jolie's adaptation of real life Olympic winner/WW II vet Louis Zamperini is as buzzy as it sounds. But with the recent passing of Mr. Zamperini, one can't deny there is a timeliness in telling this incredible true story, and while Jolie isn't the most seasoned director (this is only her second time behind the camera), the results look astounding in this new trailer.

Handsomely mounted, and (from the looks of it) acted masterfully by Skins alum Jack O'Connell, "Unbroken" is sure to be a hit, and Oscar heavyweight.

Watch the new trailer below. Unbroken will be released everywhere on Christmas Day.

Inside Llewyn Davis: "It's Not Enough To Have A Dream"

As kids, we're told to dream big. As teens, we're told that our dreams will come true as long as we work hard, and do whatever it takes to get into a good school. As young adults, we're pushed off into the big bad world and demonstrate what we learned in school and nab a job, get a house, and start a family, to start the process all over again. Countless films have documented the frustrating purgatory of "getting by" people navigate before their big break. Movies like, "Working Girl" and "The Devil Wears Prada" show the difficult journey of the respective protagonists, partnered with a happy ending; they've gotten what they wanted. But what happens when you don't "make it"? What happens when your dream outruns you even though you do whatever it takes to chase it down? With Inside Llewyn Davis, the Coen Brothers expertly show us that sometimes, what's standing between us and our big break, is ourselves.
