Synopsis
Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning bestseller from acclaimed novelist
Cormac McCarthy (NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, ALL THE PRETTY HORSES)
THE ROAD is a post-apocalyptic dramatic thriller about a father and his
son walking alone through burned America.
Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is
cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky
is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don’t know what,
if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend
themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they
are wearing, a cart of scavenged food--and each other.
Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel from Cormac McCarthy (NO COUNTRY
FOR OLD MEN), THE ROAD stars Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen
(EASTERN PROMISES) and Academy Award winners Robert Duvall (TENDER
MERCIES) and Charlize Theron (MONSTER). Guy Pearce and Kodi Smit McPhee
also star.
