Based on Cormac McCarthy‘s post-apocalyptic book of the same name, The Road follows Viggo Mortensen as he traverses a ruined earth with his son, struggling to preserve the goodness in the boy as he keeps him alive in an almost-dead world gone mad.

The Road is out later this month, and also stars Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce and Robert Duvall. I’ve not read the book, but based on the strength of the trailer and on McCarthy’s previous No Country For Old Men, I’ll definitely aim to catch this during its cinematic run.
