Looks good! Gosh, haven't seen Rainn Wilson in anything for a long time.
ReplyDeleteWho is he, never heard of him before this one?
DeleteThis looks like a tear jerker that I will have to watch. As much as I try, they can’t all be avoided. I’m curious to see Rainn Wilson in this film since he is forever engraved as Dwight in my mind!
ReplyDeleteWho is he? This is the first time I've ever heard of him.
DeleteRainn Wilson played Dwight Schrute on the American version of the TV series "The Office." He was hilarious in the obnoxious role.
ReplyDeleteOh, never watched that one, not my type of show, sadly.
DeleteLike Debra said, he played Dwight in The Office. It honestly was a character that deserved it's on TV show that's how well he played it. It's hard for me to picture him playing anyone else! The American version of The Office is very different than the original. You should give it a try. There's some vulgar humor (not my cup of tea) but some things that are so relatable that you laugh until you cry.
ReplyDeleteI never do single camera comedies just the multicams :)
DeleteQuite the cast. It will be interesting to see Rainn in a serious role. I loved his quirky character in The Office, so this will be a nice change of pace for him. Susan Sarandon tends to always pick the tear jerker roles.
ReplyDeleteAnd Kate looks very unlike herself in this one.
