Here’s a trailer that has been making the rounds and that I think is worth a look.
There’s some pretty contrived stuff in here but overall the writing — by playwright Bert V. Royal of the Peanuts-influenced “Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead” — certainly seems to be a cut above the usual. The same definitely applies to the first-rate cast, with such reliable supporting players as Stanley Tucci, who everyone seems to agree has the best one-liner in the trailer, and Patricia Clarkson supporting up-and-comer Emma Stone, who was such a hoot in “Zombieland” and also “Superbad.”
