Interesting that you would bump this, Uli. Apple trailers just posted Emilio Estevez’s new film. I don’t know whether it’ll be good or bad (I thought Bobby was flawed but interesting) but I’ll definitely check it out.
I’m always interested to see actors try their hand at directing. A couple years ago I went to the theater to see The Cake Eaters, which Mary Stuart Masterson had directed. I ended up walking out because the film was so bad.
But Vera Farmiga’s new film, Higher Ground, is getting respectable reviews, and let’s not forget about Tom McCarthy’s film from earlier this year, Win/Win. It seems to me Mr. McCarthy is three for three on the directing front.
