A new, theatrical trailer has been released for director Peter Weir's The Way Back. Featuring Colin Farrell, Jim Sturgess, Ed Harris, and Saoirse Ronan, the movie follows a group of prisoners who escape a Siberian labor camp and must cross 4,000 miles of punishing terrain in order to reach freedom in British India. The movie was based on Slawomir's memoir The Long Walk, the validity of which has been called into question by several critics, and may have, in fact, been based on another prisoner's experience and not Rawicz's. The movie is Weir's first since 2003's Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.
