New UK Trailer + Poster for Mind-Boggling Film ‘The Universal Theory’

“I know where the woman you’re looking for is.” Picturehouse has revealed the official UK trailer for the mysterious film The Universal Theory, a mind-boggling sci-fi-tinged thriller set in the Swiss mountains. This first premiered at the 2023 Venice Film Festival one year ago under the original title The Theory of Everything, and it earned mostly mixed reviews (mine is here). We also posted the US trailer recently. The noir film is set in 1962. A physics congress in the Alps. An Iranian guest. A mysterious pianist. A bizarre cloud in the sky, a boom under the mountain. It’s “a quantum mechanical thriller in black & white.” Driven by astonishing twists and improbable coincidences, The Universal Theory unravels a captivatingly complex chronicle with brain-tickling suspense. Lead by a fantastic cast & interspersed with a dynamic soundtrack, The Theory of Everything is an intellectual sci-fi film about the contingency of our world, in which much is possible and hardly anything is necessary. Starring Jan Bülow as Leinert, Olivia Ross as Karin, Hanns Zischler, Gottfried Breitfuss, David Bennent, & Philippe Graber. This one is the best of the three trailers for this film, makes me really want to rewatch it and figure out more of what is going on in the story. // Continue Reading ›
