I don't know about you, but this is one of the best trailers I've seen in a while. Although romantic dramas are not my thing, and I haven't read the omonymous book yet, it looks like this adaptation is going to be interesting.
The story is supposed to be set in the 1920's but modern music is used, and it blends amazingly well. However, the first song is not completely irrelevant to the 1920's : in that decade there was an immigration of African American people from the south to the north of the USA, and they started making new music genres popular, such as jazz and blues - which are predecessors of r'n'b.
As for the second song, I guess it's not so relative to the '20s but to the story, because it is so damn dramatic and passionate.
I also hope this song really is in the soundtrack.
Apparently people are already trashing the movie at imdb and youtube. I don't get it. Besides, it doesn't have to be completely loyal to the book.
