Wristcutters: A Love Story

Maybe this makes me horribly biased, but I love the idea of this movie because it reminds me so much of 'Bröderna Lejonhjärta,' one of my favorite movies as a child.

I LOVE that the soundtrack is composed mostly of Joy Division.

Patrick Fugit is perfection. Why is he not in more?

Everytime I see Shannyn Sossamon, I wonder how many good movies she'll have to make before I forget about how abysmal she was in 'A Knight's Tale.' I didn't see 'One Missed Call,' but I'm guessing that pushed her back a bit.

Tom Waits? Hell to the yes! Figures that he'd do miracles and crap...Tom Waits = Magic. It's that simple.

It's really too bad that this film floated around in its own limbo for so long...it definitely deserved far more fanfare than it received.

The dialog is fantastic:
"I'm not going out tonight. It just makes me depressed."
"So, what you gonna do? Kill yourself?"

OMG WILL ARNETT!

'Gloomy Sunday' in the soundtrack? Je l'aime!

I wish all romantic comedies were this original, beautiful, and entertaining.

According to IMDB, there's an Arrested Development movie coming out in 2009...IS THIS TRUE???
Edit: There is indeed a movie in the works, I found a yahoo article about it. I feel almost overwhelmingly happy now!
