Talk to Me trailer

405px-talk_to_me_poster.jpgIsn't it a little early for Oscar season? Talk to Me comes out with a limited release in the States next month, starring the talented trio of Don Cheadle, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Martin Sheen. The film is based on the true story of Washington D.C. radio presenter Ralph Greene who overcame drug addiction and jail time to become one of the most prominent personalities on Washington's airwaves in the 1970's. He even got invited to the Whitehouse by invitation of President Carter.

Looks pretty cool, even if it has the feeling of "Give me an Oscar, I'm playing a real life person".

But let's be honest, most of the time these biopics of people's lives win Oscars because they are actually good films. Cheadle looks bad ass in this.
