What’s interesting about this new trailer for Steve McQueen’s Shame is not that they tossed a few extra frames with tits in there, slapped a red-band badge on the front and called it a day, it’s that it’s another measured, uniquely-cut teaser that attempts to convey a tone as much as a plot. Also, red-band or not, his is still a trailer the studio is distributing (with an age gate) on Facebook and the like, so don’t expect to be too titillated here. That said, they still seem to be shying away from the uglier side of sex addiction that I understand this film is all about, and are still pretty much enticing with the promise of pretty people fucking.
I love the mixing of the subway sounds to convey the tensions between Fassbender and attractive-train-lady. The rhythmic clank is a great way of subconsciously building up how much these two want to hurl their sticky-parts at one another.
The quality ain’t great since it’s been grabbed from the Facebook page, but have at…
