With only a couple of months to go before release, a trailer has finally appeared for "The Time Traveler's Wife." (Can we say it's "just in time"? No? Okay.)

The movie, based on Audrey Niffenegger's 2004 novel, follows Chicagoans Henry (Eric Bana) and Clare (Rachel McAdams), whose love story is complicated by the fact that Henry uncontrollably disappears into other moments of his life. Literally disappears: He's an unwilling time traveler.

The movie promises to be just as beautiful and bittersweet as the book:

Update: The movie's poster is out as well, and looks as topsy-turvy as you'd expect from a movie about time travel:

This book was way before Journeyman. If you haven't read it - you are missing something beautiful.

"This book was way before Journeyman."

Hmm... how "way before" can a 2004 book be?

I think the phrase way before would refer to "Slaughterhouse Five" from around 40 years ago, and it's hero Billy Pilgrim who becomes "unstuck in time".

I haven't read Niffenegger's book, but it sure does sound like it "borrows" (to use a nice phrase) a lot from Vonnegut's novel.

Of course, "Five" was a serious novel, not a trite pseudo-romance.

What is it about so many women that makes them love gimmicky romance stories like "Lake House", "Benjamin Button", and endless vampire movies that are literally impossible?

Why not demand (and support) romances involving real people and the problems they overcame to achieve their love, rather than all of these hokums?

You're really starting to give women a bad name.
