just saw the trailer to Cold Souls starring Paul Giamatti as a fictionalized version of himself.
warning. at first this movie looks exactly like some kind of faux-Charlie Kaufman rip-off type shit... and you're kind of right. the story is very heady and kaufman-esque.
paul giamatti as himself decides to like see some scientific corporation that deals in removing the souls out of people. that's like being john malkovich meets eternal sunshine of the spotless mind... just with a different actor to study and a different scientific procedure.
but then he wants his soul back? uhm... were they even trying to be discrete with the plot of this?
but watch the rest of the trailer and it looks like it might be pretty funny.
paul giamatti sort of plays himself in every movie so i don't see what the point of using him as some sort metaphysical observation of himself is? im already confused by this flick.
eh but then he goes to Russia and it looks like hilarity might ensue there. i don't know: just give me a movie with Paul Giamatti in a ushanka and i'll pay top dollar to watch it. in 3D. on IMAX.
