‘Upside Down’ trailer: Kirsten Dunst and a split-sky fantasy

Sci-fi romance "Upside Down" brings together two lovers from alternate worlds. (Canal+)

Kirsten Dunst delivered the most famous upside-down smooch in film history in 2002’s “Spider-Man” and now, a decade later, she’s going  back to head-over-heels romance  with a topsy-turvy fantasy movie called “Upside Down.”

The “Melancholia” actress co-stars with Jim Sturgess in a movie about forbidden love within a fantastical setting – the meeting point between two worlds that exist and face each other like stacked skylines, each with a gravity that keeps their inhabitants rooted on their side. Sturgess plays Adam, a man of humble origins who falls for Dunst’s character, a girl from the affluent upper world. Take a look at the trailer below — or is that above?

French distributor Canal released this first trailer for the film. Shot in Montreal and directed by Argentina-born filmmaker Juan Diego Solanas, “Upside Down” doesn’t have a U.S. distributor lined up yet.

    Well Emily, your words got me interested but the video trailer wouldn't play. Just a black screen with these words: "Upside Down…This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Warner Bros. Entertainment." Oh well…. And this movie was made in my city of Montreal! I guess I'll just have to see the film. http://www.myspace.com/davidrubinmusic
