10.09.09 EMO DOG LOVES GUS VAN SANT’S NEXT MOVIE
If you’ve ever seen Elephant or Last Days, you know that despite also making some good movies, Gus Van Sant has been known to partake in the smell of his own farts. His latest project is called Restless, and according to THR, Mia Wasikowska (Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland) is set to play the lead. And according to MovieLine, who’ve read the script, it sounds, like, really deep. (*brushes bangs out of face*)
Protagonist Enoch Brae is a 17-year-old funeral crasher, drawn to attending strangers’ memorials after losing both his parents. At one of them, he meets the beautiful, tomboyish Annabel Cotton, a 16-year-old with Six Months to Live. Love then blooms among the gravestones as “the moon looks on knowingly and sympathetically.”
The only thing I can think of when I read “as the moon looks on knowingly and sympathetically” is standing next to the young lovers with my pants down doing the ass-talk thing. “Don’t worry, Annabel, I ffffeel your pppppppppaaain.” Here’s an ever-so-brief script excerpt:
This is ENOCH BRAE (17). He is wiry, with the pained good looks of romantics from long past eras. He has a visible toughness that is betrayed by a natural fragility.
His toughness is also betrayed by the atomic wedgie he just received for wearing girl’s jeans and being named “Enoch.”

EMO DOG LOVES GUS VAN SANT’S NEXT MOVIE
Emo Dog looks like that b/c he just came out of the test audience for whatever the hell Diablo Cody is doing next.
Poor puppeh dawg.
A sixteen year old who’s already emotionally frail and has only six months to live you say?
Be still, my heart.
So this is Harold and Maude w/ a polish ginger instead of the old broad?
Harold is a depressed, death-obsessed 20-year-old man/child who spends his free time attending funerals and pretending to commit suicide in front of his mother. At a funeral, Harold befriends Maude, a 79-year-old woman who has a zest for life.
ENOCH BRAE (17)
Now you’re just cheating at Scrabble.
This is ENOCH BRAE (17). He is a whining fucking maggot.
So the protagonist is a cross between Will Ferrell’s character in Wedding Crasher’s and Ed Norton’s character in Fight Club?
I am Jack’s meatloaf filled vomit.
Love then blooms among the gravestones
Chodin’s been digging up corpses to fuck again, hasn’t he?
Six months? Well thats plenty of time to meet a boy, get pregnant, break up smoke crack and ultimately fill out a film.
“Baby, I’m gonna die in six months”
“That’s ok, darling, I’m going to break up with you in eight months.”
[serious]
It’s always bugged me. Why the hell was Elephant titled Elephant?
[/serious]
More like, in 6 months she turns into the perfect girlfriend, amirite? Silent AND easy.
Emo dog would probably like this, but he is too angst filled to go to a movie theatre.
I´m gonna smell my own fart and do a repeat of my only cotw comment.
If this was a randy mayem singer movie, it would be stared by mia swastikaska.
crosses fingers.
the moon looks on knowingly and sympathetically
It’s hard to look knowing and sympathetic when you’re showing people your ass.
I have the pained good looks of a serial rapist with indigestion.
That pug just brightens my day up every time I see that pic. I want to adopt that dog.
with the pained good looks of romantics from long past eras. He has a visible toughness that is betrayed by a natural fragility
I blacked out for awhile there. Why am I covered in somebody else’s blood?
A sign that your parents may hate you: Naming you ENOCH BRAE.
Concrete proof that your parents hate you: ENOCH BRAE also spells BONER ACHE.
Well if Sasha Grey can be well received in movies, I’m sure Aurora Snow will be as well.
