Oh, man, I am so stoked. Go here for the trailer of Memoirs of Geisha trailer. I absolutely adored the book so I would have anticipated the movie anyway but the main character is played by none other than lovely Zhang Ziyi!

The only bad thing is that I have to wait till December! The man in the second pic is Ken Watanabe, who was nominated for Oscar for his role in Last Samurai.
