Comes out at the end of March. Some of the trailer is a little too self-consciously mysterious, but it looks like it could be one of those movies that comes along that is so different from anything else that it works, no matter how oddball it is. Like Donnie Darko.

I think this movie is going to be above trad indie fare (Chumscrubber, thumbsucker, etc.)....good enough to have a cult following & be a good movie, but not as amazing as people will say it is...

That being said, I'ma definitely see it in the theatres...

Katie and I saw this last night, and I give it my enthusiastic approval. The reviews split on whether the "high school noir" thing works, and to me it did because the director was conscious of its limitations and used it to deliver some genuinely original humor. The dialogue was top notch, and well delivered by a surprisingly effective kid-from-3rd-rock.

Thanks for reminding me of this.

While watching "The Constant Gardener" on DVD this weekend, we saw the trailer, and so after began hunting around for where it was showing. We are thinking of taking the ride down to Chicago to see it.

The trailer is quite compelling....

Writer/ Director/ Editor Rian Johnson on "The Treatment". After hearing this the other day I really want to see it.

I read an article about this a while back and it sounds pretty interesting and unique.

So I'll definitely keep an eye out.

looks really good but the title is really bad. If i hadn't seen the preview i'd be be put off by the title alone.

Are they going to use the Ben Folds Five song in the movie?




Actually, I'd be willing to see this if it gets played over here.

I watched it all weekend. Every time LSU took a shot. Men or women.

Who else saw this? A friend of mine saw this but she said she couldn't follow the story but I think she's just dumb.
