The first trailer for Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield’s decade-spanning comedy-drama We Live in Time is here, and it looks just as sweet and funny, and… emotional as we expected.
The R-rated movie follows up-and-coming chef Almut (Pugh) and recent divorcé Tobias (Garfield) as they are brought together through a surprise encounter that changes both of their lives. “Through snapshots of their life together – falling for each other, building a home, becoming a family – a difficult truth is revealed that rocks its foundation,” continues the official synopsis. “As they embark on a path challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of the unconventional route their love story has taken.”
“Sorry, but do we know each other yet?” a bashful and bruised Tobias asks Almut from a hospital bed in the clip, which you can watch above. “Oh, no,” the latter replies. “I ran you over. Sorry” In the montage that follows, the pair takes a bath, messes around on a fairground ride, and navigates Almut’s rapidly deteriorating health…
“I’m not interested in a treatment that accidentally wastes our time,” she tells him in one scene. “Why are you taking the risk?” he asks back, to which she replies: “I can’t bear the thought of being forgotten.”
Executive produced by Benedict Cumberbatch and directed by John Crowley, whose previous works include True Detective,Black Mirror, andBrooklyn, the romance flick marks a reunion of sorts between the filmmaker and Garfield. The pair first collaborated on Boy A back in 2007, which marked the Amazing Spider-Man star’s film debut.
