God this looks terrible, how did 2 such reputable names get involved in a film who's premise could have been an 'Everybody Loves Raymond' episode circa 2004?
Also is ScarJo really that bad of an actress?

I wouldn't assume we know what this film is "about," given that Julianne Moore is barely in the trailer because Too Old to Sell.
― playwright Greg Marlowe, secretly in love with Mary (Dr Morbius), Friday, 26 July 2013 15:21 (eleven years ago) link
i love when people who have been fabulously wealthy movie/tv stars literally their entire lives attempt to approximate what it's like to be "working class." like somehow when they do these really cartoonish accents and say dumb things (BECAUSE THEY'RE POOR) it's supposed to be funny and not disgusting. and meanwhile trying to ironically equate the falseness of romcoms with the falseness of porn while somehow being totally unaware of the irony of trying to present this in the framework of a totally false movie.

Julianne Moore has to be the therapist, right? Working class people otherwise played for laughs always find redemption through the upper middle class pursuit of therapy in these fantasies.
― PJ. Turquoise dealer. Chatroulette addict. Andersonville. (Hurting 2), Friday, 26 July 2013 15:39 (eleven years ago) link
I'm guessing it's related to the "porn addiction" or w/e.
― PJ. Turquoise dealer. Chatroulette addict. Andersonville. (Hurting 2), Friday, 26 July 2013 15:40 (eleven years ago) link
Which really kind of fits in with a larger theory of the sub-genre that's kind of coming to me. Working class people are loveable primitives lacking in full self-awareness, but therapy offers them a pathway to bourgeois enlightenment and self-understanding. Thus the audience can feel superior and charitable at the same time for having affection for these doltish characters and wanting them to better themselves.

wanting *them* to better themselves.
why is he out in the park waslking with his therapist? I can only hope he fucks her too.
is this like the comedy version of Shame?
― akm, Friday, 26 July 2013 15:45 (eleven years ago) link
bah ok looks like she's not the therapist, just a wise older woman who helps him understand women

it's like he watched silver linings playbook and was like how can i make this even more boring and dumb? there should be a mash-up sequel where tony danza and robert deniro sit on a couch together wearing wifebeaters, eating pasta, and watching football on tv for two hours.

Oh no doubt, it's almost too rich that Morbs knocks any film that seems proletarian and then is psyched to see a condescending, middlebrow take on the proles.

JOE GOR always seems very eager to come across as a versatile guy who can do comedy and disappear into extreme roles, so i'm not surprised this is his passion project. looks like it could be fun, or could be as painful as some of his SNL sketches.

elmo what is your point, we have a million different movie threads where people talk about how good or shitty it will be based off of trailers or even less info, why are you getting so defensive about this one?
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 26 July 2013 17:03 (eleven years ago) link
i didn't realize i was being 'defensive'! this movie may or may not be crap, that's fine with me, i think hurting going talking a streak about cultural stereotyping of italian americans and the working class based on the trailer is kinda bizarre tho

I am not "psyched" to see this film, Hurting, and unfortunately I've met my quota of telling ppl to get stuffed for July.
