A movie about a taxman who is really a character in a book? Or is it about a character in a book who is really a taxman? *shrug* Anyhoo, the taxman is going about his ordinary, everyday (boring) life when he starts to hear the author like a narrator in his head, recounting his day-to-day life. She's accurate, but has a better vocabulary! LOL. When he hears her talking about his imminent death, he sets out to find her and change the ending.
(If this had been a romance, he'd have been much happier, right?)
A writer friend sent me the link (thanks, Barb!) and it sounds like fun for the writers and bookworms. Also sounds a bit The Truman Show, but I liked that. I'm not going to let the fact that it stars Will Ferell (NOT my favourite comic actor) put me off. I enjoyed the trailer. And co-stars include Emma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman and Maggie Gylenhaal.
Check out the trailer and tell me what you think. One you'd like to see, or one you'll pass on?
