Here's A Trailer For Richard Linklater's ME & ORSON WELLES!! Could Be Cool...


Merrick here...

Yahoo's posted the trailer for the uncommercially titled ME & ORSON WELLES. This one's from Richard Linklater (THE SCHOOL OF ROCK, A SCANNER DARKLY, FAST FOOD NATION).

Christian McKay's looking pretty fun as Orson, Claire Danes is Claire Danes, and I'm still not convinced Zac Efron has the chops to play "dramatic" leading men...but we'll see.

All in all, this might be interesting & I'm looking forward to seeing more when it hits in late November. I've heard some pretty bizarre stories from folks who had personal associations with Orson - you could probably turn the man's existence into a ten film franchise and only begin to touch on his uniqueness.


WHAT DO YOU THINK???
