In a couple weeks we'll see
Philip Seymour Hoffman back on the big screen with frequent collaborator Paul Thomas Anderson behind the camera for
The Master, but later this year, he's picking up a violin for a drama called
A Late Quartet. The film follows Hoffman,
Catherine Keener, Christopher Walken and
Mark Ivanir as a musical group whose members have performed together for 25 years who must adjust to one of them (Walken) forced into retirement due to Parkinson's disease. The film is playing at Toronto this week (stay tuned for coverage), and now a trailer has arrived to help build some buzz.
Watch the trailer!
