Hope Davis recently signed on to appear in the new Charlie Kaufman epic. This time sir brainbender himself will be handling both writing and directorial duties. The film is called "Synecdoche, New York" and I'm pretty sure that the title is a pun combining
Schenectady and something that I am too stupid to know about. Also, it just took me ten minutes of intensive internet surfing to even get the correct spelling of that city. Jesus. I gotta lay off the rice cakes.
The rest of the cast reads like a whos who of Oscar lusters: Samantha Morton, Tilda Swinton, Catherine Keener, Michelle Williams and, oh yeah, Angelina Jolie. I guess that means Tomb Raider 3 is on the backburner then? Crap.
The film is lensing now so look for it early next year. And don't bother. I did your homework for you:

There will be a quiz.
