“Flash of Genius” Trailer

Flash of GeniusThe first trailer for Lauren Graham‘s new movie, Flash of Genius, has been released. The movie, based on the true story of Robert Kearns, follows auto giant’s theft of the invention of the intermittent windshield wiper. A family man and college professor, Robert Kearns thinks he struck gold for his family when he invents a device that every car will eventually use. However, he’s pushed aside. Robert is overwhelmed by this and becomes obsessed, at all costs, with finding justice for his life’s work.

Flash of Genius stars Greg Kinnear as Bob Kearns, Lauren Graham as Phyllis Kearns, Dermot Mulroney and Alan Alda. The movie is based on The New Yorker article Flash of Genius by: John Seabrook. Learn more about the movie from the teaser site.

Flash of Genius will hit theaters on October 17, 2008. Prior to that, the movie will be premiering at various film festivals across the US including the Traverse City Film Festival this month where our resident FilmGecko writer will be attending.
