Water For Elephants

The adaptation of the best-selling book Water For Elephants is one of the most anticipated films of 2011. With big names like Reese Witherspoon, Christoph Waltz, and Robert Pattinson, it’s attracting attention from all ends of the fan-base spectrum.

For more on the story, here’s the official book synopsis:

“When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, drifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town. A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that he meets Marlena, the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, who is married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. He also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems untrainable until he discovers a way to reach her.”
