    It might be an interesting film to watch when the TBA release date is official.

    Sal Paradise, an aspiring New York writer,
    the writer who longs to 'sell paradise', ie. ideas/dreams/fantasies of a paradise-like life (you know, just travel around, party, have fun, things like that,...while you can that is, until the period of 'sobering' eventually arrives)

    meets Dean Moriarty, a devastatingly charming ex-con, married to the very liberated and seductive Marylou.
    mkay, who charmed a 16-year old girl (read: inexperienced/gullible teen) into life of 'liberation'

    Sal and Dean bond instantly.
    now the writer can sell (and take part in) the story of that paradise embodied within the dean-marylou duo

    Determined not to get locked in to a constricted life...Thirsting for liberty
    actually, their life is still constricted by their choice of a lifestyle (to that particular lifestyle), its just not the usual/ordinary/prevalent kind of a constriction so common among others, lets say, from their generation, thus no real liberation has been achieved, ie. its simply a case of switching 'cages' or roles, that role of the 'settled' being substituted for a role of the 'nomad' - in other words, liberation cannot be achieved by mere choice of a role, one has to go beyond the role itself (regardless of what the current role is or what future ones might be), though it can be said that some roles are better suited than others regarding that particular goal

    , the three young people head off in search of the world, of other encounters, and of themselves.
    first two will be discovered (regardless of whether any traveling is made), the last probably not even scratched beyond the surface, but then again, their behavior/attitude speaks of nothing else but immaturity & superficiality, which, if maintained for prolonged periods of time, will lead them ever further from their stated goal and they will in fact achieve exactly the opposite (less liberation than before), until one day that goal becomes no more than a vague term from a distant (forgotten) past or worse

    as for the trailers, doesn't seem to be much more than a random road/party movie with average acting/actors, might as well skip it
