The Bang Bang Club Trailer: Ryan Phillippe and Taylor Kitsch are the Sexiest War Photographers Ever

What happens when you cast two of Hollywood's prettiest actors -- Ryan Phillippe and Taylor Kitsch -- as hard-bitten war photographers chronicling impoverished black South Africans? With The Bang Bang Club, we're about to find out.

While I'm much more likely to imagine the two actors in front of the camera -- and Phillippe looks a leeeeetle different than the real-life shutterbug he's playing -- it's hard to get much of a read on this trailer, which spans three minutes yet has no dialogue whatsoever. I feel like I've rented a VHS tape from Sony Pictures Classics and the coming attractions are trying to hide the fact that they're foreign and subtitled.

Still, Bang Bang premieres next month at Toronto, so maybe we'll get a better sense of it at that point. Until then, enjoy the pretty pictures and pretty men until we can find out if there's anything more to the movie than that.
