Quantum of Solace may be the center of attention at
the moment, but another Daniel Craig flick, Defiance, could be the one enjoying
the spotlight come Oscar time. The Ed Zwick-directed period piece, based on the
true story of three Belarusian brothers who helped liberate a Nazi death camp
during World War II, has been steadily gathering buzz as a possible awards
contender.
Defiance
is set to premiere at the AFI Fest on November 9; the rest of us will get a
chance to see what all the buzz is about when it opens wide on January 16,
2009. In the meantime, check out the new Defiance
trailer.
