'In Bruges' Trailer Large on Swearing, Little People

November 26, 2007 Comments

In the Snatch tradition of gangsters delivering dark comedy in thick accents comes In Bruges, starring Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and Ralph Fiennes. Enough swearing is littered through the trailer that, even if this ends up being terrible, it should make for a decent "drink when someone says 'f***'" drinking game.

I'm not sure how the short, unexplained shot of a rat-headed man fits into the grand scheme of things, but when you see him, you should take a shot.
