Keira Knightley shines in ‘Atonement’

Atonement US premiere is this December 6th, and there are some gorgeous pictures promoting the film in a Press Event for the release of it in the country-. I think the cast and Joe are already there, because Keira will be a guest of Regis and Kelly on Monday December 3rd.

The film, already being talked up as an Academy Awards contender, is likely to be a turning point for Knightley, co-star James McAvoy and director Joe Wright.

When you see a good film, it looks so easy, and yet you can go right through the process and think it’s going to be great, then you watch it and it just doesn’t work. It is terrifying, but that’s what’s exciting about it. Because you never know.”

“The beauty of it is that you know there are going to be failures, you know there are going to be times when you just miss the mark, and it makes the times when it’s good even better
