Viggo Mortensen in the The Road - Blu-ray Forum

GreenScar · 08-08-2008, 01:06 AM

I love post apocalyptic stories. I'm really excited for this. can't wait for the trailer.

the book takes place in a burnt out American wasteland, not long after a nuclear winter has settled in. A father and his son, traveling with only the clothes they are wearing, a pistol for protection, and a cart of scavenged food, slowly make their way down a deserted road in an attempt to get to the coast. They don't know what they'll find there, but at this point, they've got nothing else but each other and the hope that they'll find something at the end that is keeping them alive.
