The trailer for Kevin Spacey’s Sundance hit, Shrink, came out on the internet just now:
Kevin Spacey is back! Or, it seems, Lester Burnham from American Beauty has come back to (spoiler) life and become a celebrity shrink, but who cares! Apparently I will mark any trailer that features dark comedy, fake celebrities, a knowing, meta film reference (“I’ve seen Ordinary People“), Kevin Spacey being back, the idea of a person who helps others while being a druggie mess himself, epiphanies that come at the strangest times, redemption, and, ESPECIALLY, the song “Chicago” by Sufjan Stevens, as an automatic must-see. Also, Robin Williams is in it. Make fun all you want, I don’t care, I think it looks great! For real. Let the healing begin!

Landry as a drug dealer?! I’m sold.
get it? ‘sold’?
“who said that?” “you did.” = banned from all screenplays henceforth. stop it!
I am convinced trailers are 100 percent dependent on song choice. The actual movie could be totally meh, but when Chicago came in I was convinced it was a classic. “It was for freedom from myself and from the land.” Who gives a shit about the movie, great trailer.
In the pop-out bubble mode of Google Reader, it doesn’t tell you who wrote the post. And I was like “What happened to Gabe! All his tastes did a 180.”
Robin Williams? Where? Did I blink and miss him?
ROBERT LOGGIA!?!
Any movie with Sufjan Stevens is good on my list.
Man, I love weed, Sufan Stevens, and neurosis. Done and done.
i’m a sucker for a trailer with good music. i really wanted to see the disney movie earth just cause it had hoppípolla by sigur rós.
it always seems odd when a movie uses the requiem for a dream song (lux aeterna?) since that movie was so dark.
but remember, garden state also had awesome trailer music so it’s not necessarily a sign of a good movie.
Was on-set yesterday with Spacey…he comes across as Lester when the cameras aren’t rolling.
(And, not surprisingly, the only people he was friendly with were all the young males…)
What the what?
Tone deaf script. I’ve seen ordinary people? What’s narcissism? Blech.
i mean, ugh. but i do like the one character who doesn’t have a car/will clean pools. and the use of Sufjan really took it to the next level of yuck.
chicago is a great song. TOO BAD ITS A RIPOFF!@!!!….of his other song, “the transfiguration”, track 12 off “seven swans”
I’d personally like Hollywood to stop using the Sufjan Stevens Trailer Song and the Sigur Ros Trailer Song so I can go back to enjoying them both outside of the meh associations forced upon them.
amen amen
aw man. fine. i’m with you!
Landry wouldn’t appreciate double posts, guys. Sorry.
