Adrien Brody Looking Oscar Worthy in 'Detachment' Trailer

Adrien Brody is phenomenal in every performance, even if the movie he headlines isn't the greatest (Wrecked, The Jacket, Hollywoodland).  Next up for this Oscar-winning actor is a star studded drama called Detachment, which comes to us courtesy of American History X director Tony Kaye and has future award nomination for Brody written all over it.

In Detachment, Brody plays a subsititute teacher with a mysterious past.  This story revolves around the lives of high school teachers and students from the perspective of the substitute during his three week tour of duty at the school.  The cast of fellow teachers is filled by the great Bryan Cranston, Christina Hendricks, Marcia Gay Harden (Mystic River), Tim Blake Nelson (O'Brother, Where Art Thou?) William Petersen (CSI), Lucy Liu, Blythe Danner (Meet the Parents) and Jimmy Caan and highlights the incredible impact teachers can have on students lives and vice versa, both positive and negative.  

The trailer below is both powerful and incredibly entertaining.  Detachment already experienced a succesful debut at the Tribeca Film Festival, but won't see its limited theatrical release until March 16, 2012.  I see it being Netflixed in my future.
