Here’s a quick rundown on the new trailer for By the Sea: The sea, contemplation, gazing, smoking, peeping, emotions, walking, more emotions, the sea again, more emotions, bathing, fighting, showering, and crying. No words, just the score and plenty of emotional moments. What’s By the Sea about? The trailer doesn’t shed any light on that, other than the fact it stars real-life couple Angelina Jolie Pitt and Brad Pitt.
Angelina Jolie Pitt also wrote and directed the dramatic film which is being released in theaters on November 14, 2015.
The By the Sea Plot:
By the Sea follows an American writer named Roland (Pitt) and his wife, Vanessa (Jolie Pitt), who arrive in a tranquil and picturesque seaside resort in 1970s France, their marriage in apparent crisis. As they spend time with fellow travelers, including young newlyweds Lea (Mélanie Laurent) and François (Melvil Poupaud), and village locals Michel (Niels Arestrup) and Patrice (Richard Bohringer), the couple begins to come to terms with unresolved issues in their own lives.
In its style, and its treatment of themes of the human experience, By the Sea is inspired by European cinema and theater of the ’60s and ’70s.
