Hmmmm. Not sure how I feel about this one. Will Ferrell has been cast in the lead role of $10 million indie film "Everything Must Go."
Based on a Raymond Carver short story "Why Don't You Dance," it centers on a man attempting to sell all of his possessions, after his wife dumps them on the lawn and kicks him out of the house. The story, a stark and powerful piece, takes place on one night and is told more through the eyes of a couple buying the man’s belongings.
Not to take anything away from Ferrell, he can do drama when he's not acting like a goofball. I just wonder why him and why this story? Let's just hope he doesn't fuck it up. If so, there's always "Short Cuts."
I was able to muster up a crude Carver documentary on YouTube that actually shot the story. Amateurish, but it works brilliantly. Enjoy the show after the jump...
PART TWO
yep, weird but let's see how it goes...
ReplyDeleteSometimes the movie people take a good story and fuck it up for profit. Will Ferrell? WTF?
