The Max Winkler directed movie CEREMONY saw its premiere at the Toronto Film Festival, but today we get an official trailer for it, and I gotta say it looks just quirky and silly enough to be a fun time. Sam Davis (Michael Angarano) convinces his former best friend to spend a weekend with him to rekindle their friendship at an elegant beachside estate owned by a famous documentary filmmaker (Lee Pace). But it soon becomes clear that Sam is secretly infatuated with the filmmaker’s fiancee, Zoe (Uma Thurman), and that his true intention is to thwart their impending nuptials. As Sam’s plan begins to unravel, he is forced to realize how complicated love and friendship can be. The film co-stars Jake Johnson (NO STRINGS ATTACHED) and Rebecca Mader (LOST). I love me some Lee Pace, and his role in this look particularly amusing. Check out the poster above and the trailer below, and tell us your thoughts in the comments. You can see CEREMONY at this year’s South by Southwest Film Festival – more info at http://sxsw.com
CEREMONY opens April 8, 2011
