The release of the trailer for Peter Jackson's new movie 'The Lovely Bones' was all over Twitter today. I first read this book long before the movie was mooted, and now that I am the mother of two wee girls I find it even more disturbing. Based on the critically acclaimed best-selling novel by Alice Sebold, and directed by our own Peter Jackson from a screenplay by Jackson & Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens, 'The Lovely Bones' centers on Susie Salmon, a young 14 year old girl who has been murdered and watches over her family – and her killer – from heaven. The trailer looks amazing! I always wondered how this book would look on the screen, and I get the feeling it won't disappoint. The colours and art direction look to be stunning.

Honestly, it gives me goosebumps! Pin It

I was such a fan of how Peter did LOTR's, it will be interesting to see what he does with this.
