This winter comes a comedy about four long lost friends in search of a little harmony – Quartet! And all that thanks to legendary Dustin Hoffman who stands behind the whole thing, together with screenwriter Ronald Harwood. What I definitely love about this new trailer is that nothing (and I mean nothing, really) looks boring out there. Congratulations to Mr. Hoffman for an extraordinary cast, indeed!
Maggie Smith, Billy Connolly, Michael Gambon, Pauline Collins, Tom Courtenay and Sheridan Smith all star in the movie which is set to open on December 28th, 2012. Simply titled Quartet, Hoffman's directorial debut will tell us the story of Reggie, Wilf and Cissy who reside in a home for retired opera singers.

Each year they stage a concert to celebrate Verdi's birthday, which also raises funds for the home. But, the real mess starts when Reggie's ex-wife Jean arrives at the home and creates tension, playing the diva part but refusing to sing in the concert.
I hope you at least agree that their love of love is infectious?
Let me know what you think about the whole thing, and stay tuned for more!
