New and Improved 'Lovely Bones' Poster

The first real deal voting screening I'm attending this year is The Lovely Bones, happening early next week. Some screeners have already arrived, but they're films I've already seen, making Bones my first real foray into the mad season.

To get a little extra pub for the movie, Paramount has released a new poster, and a more evocative one, in my opinion. The previous one lacked any real meaning unless you know the book well enough. This one, however, forces the issue a bit more.

The three things I'll be watching for here are Saoirse Ronan, vying to be the youngest two-time Oscar nominee at age 15, the work of Stanley Tucci (whose back you see in the poster), and whether or not Peter Jackson handles the delicate stuff the way it needs to be handled. If he conveys those things properly, this could be a real doozy.

I've always felt the poster for 'The Lovely Bones' should read "For Christmas this year Dreamworks Pictures proudly presents a stocking full of rape"...
