I just realized when titling this post that I have now posted two trailers in a row called "Being" someone, but the films couldn't be more different. This is a trailer for Robert DeNiro's latest, a drama from About a Boy director Paul Weitz. It follows a father and son, played by Deniro and Paul Dano respectively, who after years of separation discover one another in a homeless shelter. Dano works there but DeNiro has misstepped his way through life and needs a place to land. What the two have in common other than their blood is their love of writing. How can the power of the pen unite these two disparate men?
This one is for all the writers of the world who also love a good movie. Enjoy!
As Flynn puts it: "Life is gathering material." Hear Hear!
