There’s An Invite For You Online For MARGOT AT THE WEDDING!

Published at:  Jun 28, 2007 6:10:15 AM CDT

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

It’s strange... we ran a review the other day for MARGOT AT THE WEDDING, where our reviewer claimed to have been to a test-screening. I’m not sure where he saw it, though, since it hasn’t actually test-screened yet. I think he was much sneakier than he originally said.

I have high hopes for this one. I think it could be a real breakthrough for Jack Black, who finally appears to be freed from the expectation of shtick, and I’m always up for a great Jennifer Jason Leigh performance. I’m not sure I’ve had a chance lately to gush about how brilliant she is, but I am shamelessly in love with her work.

For now, check out the trailer for the film, sent over by Paramount Vantage along with this official synopsis:



”Acclaimed Academy Award®-nominated writer/director Noah Baumbach ("The Squid and the Whale," "Kicking and Screaming,") brings to life a sharply observed portrait of a family in distress. His latest project is an unflinchingly honest story about coming to terms with one's family and oneself, a journey that is both funny and heartbreaking. The film stars Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Jack Black.”

    ads like that on AICN make me somewhat cautious about spending too much time here...it's like, you know how you probably won't get crabs from a public toilet, but you still don't sit all the way down...

    Jack was grand in King Kong except for the scene near the beginning when he's telling people about the island-I was expecting him to break out into that "You're Not Hardcore" song from School Of Rock cos his monologue sounded that much like the intro....

    I too was surprised by Jack Black's performance in Kong

    by garbageman33

    Specifically, I was suprised by how much I wanted to crawl onto the screen and punch him in the throat for ruining an otherwise mediocre movie.

    Noah Baumbach=Wes Anderson Lite

    by lordrando

    Not a bad thing, mind you, but all his movies seem a little derivative, ie, kicking and screaming is a woody allen movie with younger people, a good thing, and the squid and the whale is good but depressing.
