THE GHOST trailer!
February 24th 2010 05:00
Could this be the last we see of Polanksi behind the camera. Premiering February 12 at the recent Berlin film festival The Ghost was shot on location in Germany, at the Babelsberg Studios in Potsdam, Strausberg Airport near Berlin and on the islands of Sylt and Usedom in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea respectively, locations that stood in for London and Martha's Vineyard due to Polanski's inability to legally travel to those places.
Based on Robert Harris’ acclaimed novel, THE GHOST is the story of a ghostwriter hired to take over writing the memoirs of one former British Prime Minister (Pierce Brosnan, JAMES BOND, THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR), after the ex-Prime Minister’s first co-writer dies in an accident. Soon after the Ghost accepts the assignment, a high-ranking British official accuses Lang of illegally seizing suspected terrorists and handing them over for torture by CIA, a war crime.
The controversy brings reporters and protesters swarming to the Martha’s Vineyard mansion where Lang is staying with his wife, Ruth (OLIVIA WILLIAMS) and his media-handler turned mistress, Amelia (Kim Cattrall SEX AND THE CITY, MY BOY JACK). As The Ghost works, he begins uncover to clues revealing the previous writer may have pieced together a dark secret linking Lang to the CIA, and that somehow this information is hidden in the manuscript he left behind.
From acclaimed director Roman Polanski (OLIVER TWIST, THE PIANIST, CHINATOWN) and resonating with topical themes, this atmospheric and intriguing political thriller charts one man’s determination to discover the truth and to tell it, if necessary, from beyond the grave.
