More Details Surface About Sam Mendes' Away We Go

The information keeps pouring in about director Sam Mendes' previously untitled film, which, we now know, will be called Away We Go

From what we hear so far, this will be a Go-Getter style film about an expectant, thirty-something couple (John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph) who take a good, old-fashioned American roadtrip. Their goal: to find a place to finally settle down and raise their family, but judging by the trailer, this will be harder for them than it sounds.  

The film also stars Jeff Daniels, Carmen Ejogo, Jim Gaffigan, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Josh Hamilton, Allison Janney, Melanie Lynskey, Chris Messina, Catherine O'Hara and Paul Schneider. Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes is at the helm, and the screenplay was penned by novelists Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida.

To top this delicious-sounding movie off with chocolate sauce and a cherry, it will feature music by acclaimed singer/songwriter Alexi Murdoch. His songs that will make an appearance in the film are listed below. 

1.  All My Days
2.  Blue Mind
3.  What Is Life (George Harrison)
4.  Song For You
5.  Golden Brown (The Stranglers)
6.  Towards The Sun
7.  Meet Me In The Morning (Bob Dylan)
8.  Breathe
9.  Wait
10. The Ragged Sea
11. Oh! Sweet Nuthin' (The Velvet Underground)
12. Orange Sky
13. Crinan Wood (bonus track)
