Hey folks, Harry here... Am I the only one that loves JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO? I remember at the time it seemed critics decided that it was the nerdy kid with a pocket protector on the school bus of cinema, but dammit... I've always liked geeks - and JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO was solid fun geek cinema. I loved the look and feel of the film, the wacky sense of being. Yet it also had a sadness. Then there was the greater glory of flourescent lights sucking Joe's soul. Brilliant. Accurate. True.

Anyway, the fella that directed that film was John Patrick Shanley - his only directorial effort was JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO - but his fingertips sculpted a series of pretty damn good films with movies like MOONSTRUCK, THE JANUARY MAN and ALIVE - along with the script for JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO. His last big scrip was CONGO - a film that the mere mention of makes me think of Taco Bell Watches, an Ape with a Nintendo Power Glove - and Volcano monkey death... which just gets me to giggling.

Well - it seems that John has decided to come out with something... COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from the work he's done before.

DOUBT is a movie from Miramax... an awards-minded project it seems, that stars Meryl Streep as a Nun from Hell (it seems) and Philip Seymour Hoffman as Father Flynn - a priest that may or may not have abused a young struggling black member of the church. The trailer does a great job of creating a "who did what when and where" type of feeling, while also showing off Hoffman's awesome chops and the Bette Davis direction of Meryl Streep's career.
