Richard Kelly's 'The Box' pic


Richard Kelly's first film, Donnie Darko, turned out to be a huge cult classic.  Unfortunately, his follow up film, Southland Tales was met with mixed reviews (that's really being pretty nice).  His third movie looks to be more commercial judging by its' cast: Cameron Diaz, James Marsden, and Frank Langella.

The premise of the film sounds cool - a mysterious stranger shows up on the doorstep of a young couples' (Diaz and Marsden) house.  He presents them with a box and a simple propostion: if they puch the button on the box, they'll have all the money they need for treatment of their sick child but someone else will have to die.  They of course choose to push the button and hear a gunshot go off somewhere close.  Diaz then sets out to solve the murder she has caused.

Can't wait for this one.  Here's the first pic from the film.  It's not much, but we'll take what we can get for now.
