We Are Marshall trailer

The theatrical trailer is up on Yahoo Movies for We Are Marshall, a movie about the true story of a plane crash that killed 75 Marshall University players and coaching staff on November 14, 1970, and the rebuilding that followed.

I just watched it and it made me get all teary and ridiculous. Go here and watch it, and then go see the movie when it comes out in December (don't worry, I'll remind you again.) :-) It's my school, my hometown - and I really want the movie to do well. Also, the Apple featurette is here, if you're interested - interviews with Matthew McConaughey, Matthew Fox, David Strathairn, director McG, Jack Lengyl, and Red Dawson. I got all teary and ridiculous for that, too.

By the way, the song in the beginning of the trailer is Carry On by Crosby Stills Nash and Young, if you were wondering (as I was.) Here's a link to the song at the iTunes Music Store: Carry On, from We Are Marshall trailer

Interestingly (or maybe not, whatever) the song is also on the Patch Adams soundtrack, a movie which has ties to West Virginia too (the Gesundheit! Institute is in Hillsboro, West Virginia.) So there you go.
