The first two official stills from this year's The Adjustment Bureau have finally arrived. The film, based on a Philip K. Dick story (haven't we run out of work by him to adapt yet?), is about a politician and a ballerina, and the mysterious agency trying to keep them from falling in love at all costs. No, it's not a bad romantic comedy; it's sci-fi, which adds a lot of intrigue. The more subtle presence of the sci-fi element actually calls to mind Chris Nolan's upcoming Inception (which is shaping up to be an "existential heist thriller"...I like), also due in July, which incorporates intriguing, veiled sci-fi plot elements into an otherwise "normal" present-day setting. There's still no word of when a trailer might appear, although with the onslaught of blockbuster hopefuls of May right around the corner, expect to see it soon; I don't think a lot of people really know about this film yet. Hopefully there isn't a bad reason for that.
