(Jason Ritter: the man with four eyebrows)
Those f–king hipsters will just not let up, man. This is the “official” trailer for Peter and Vandy, a film I already want to punch in the boob, purely based on the fact that one of its main characters is named Vandy. Starring Jason Ritter and Jess Weixler, I think it’s a movie about songs that play for 15 seconds and then suddenly drop out. No really, I’m sitting here in ski socks trying to count the number of songs they cram into this thing and I’m at like five or six.
Anyway, the film’s IMDB page supplies what my malnourished fingers just couldn’t: the most vague, universally-applied film synopsis ever.
Peter and Vandy is a love story told out of order about a couple that is out of order. Juxtaposing Peter and Vandy’s romantic beginnings with the twisted-manipulative-regular couple they become, the film explores the question most couples ask themselves… ‘How the hell did we get this way?’
So there you have it. Opening Oct. 9th at Village East in New York and Sunset 5 in Los Angeles. I know I’ll be there, because there’s nothing my ex hates more than when I invite her and her new boyfriend to sh–ty movies.
