HeyUGuys - We’ve been rather excited about Peter Weir’s The Way Back and to be honest, haven’t really shut up about it over the past month or two! The movie comes out this Sunday 26th December (that would be Boxing Day), and we’ve been lucky enough to be given this exclusive clip to share with you all where we get to see a rather bedraggled looking Colin Farrell be woken from his slumber to be given a rather thorough clean.
Ben Affleck’s Jack Cunningham battles alcoholism while coaching a high school basketball team in The Way Back.
It’s the start of the Second World War and a group of soldiers and mercenaries find themselves imprisoned in a Siberian Gulag waiting for death under Stalin’s regime. Janusz (Tim Sturgess - 21) is a new addition to the camp and soon befriends Khabarov (Mark Strong – Sherlock Holmes) who has a grand plan to escape the camp and make a dash for freedom. So an eclectic group of men mount their escape and a bid for liberty that will involve a journey across the world’s harshest terrains in a staggering trek from Siberia to the Indian border of the Himalayas.
An epic tale of survival, The Way Back is a film audiences can applaud. Based on “real events“, this film follows a small band of escapees as they search for freedom, even if they have to cross 4,000 miles on foot to do it. In theatres now, The Way Back has something for everyone; breathtaking visuals, an inspirational story, and touching scenes of friendship and courage.
