At Last: The Road comes to Hartford


Cormac MacCarthy's The Road is one of the best books I've ever read, and millions of other readers and the Pulitzer people agree. I've waited with a mix of impatience and skepticism for the moviefication to materialize on screen, and after loads of buzz, delays, a tonally inappropriate trailer and more delays, the movie was finally released a few weeks ago. But not in Hartford, or anywhere near Central CT.

Well, finally this weekend The Road opens at Cinema City in Hartford (and probably other locations...).


****Spoiler*****


As I understand it, there is no baby roasting in the film. Boo on you, director John Hillcoat.
