Trailer Watch: "The Master"

Ever since reading the description of the film, I've been interested in possibly seeing it. Dealing with a cultish leader, it sounded intriguing, but I didn't delve into the plot past this. The trailer gives a bit more to chew on, seeming to focus on the downward spiral of a man (Joaquin Phoenix) who falls prey to this charismatic leader (Philip Seymour Hoffman). The trailer has a old, classic style to it, almost like a more modern period piece. The strength, however, seems to be the acting, because already, I'm invested in Hoffman's character and want to see more. Hoffman is such a good actor, and I look forward to what he does with this role.
