I don't know that you could say that Roman Coppola has had a wholly successful career as a director (his last film was 10 years ago), but he has had an incredibly successful career working in movies. As part of the Wes Anderson school of filmmaking he co-wrote Moonrise Kingdom, which so far stands at my favorite movie of the year. While you can definitely see those influences in this trailer, you can see a lot more...like possibly his insanity or that of Chuckles Swans.
I have about zero idea what is happening, but maybe I'm okay with that? Bill Murray looks funny and that could be worth the $16 for admission.
Oh, and in case all of you Screened Pups missed Mary Elizabeth Winstead in a riding a horse in a tiny Native American costume, so, yeah, there's that.
I am beginning to think Charlie Sheen is a cold calculating genius who had a systematic plan to reinvigorate his career through an elaborately planned meltdown. Put that in you crack pipe and smoke it!
The only reason I watched the trailer was to see Ramona Flowers. This movie needs more of her and less of everything else.
