Found out today there’s a film adaptation of the Nick Hornby book, Juliet, Naked, coming out, starring Ethan Hawke, Rose Byrne and Chris O’Dowd.
If you’re unfamiliar, it’s prime DiS-bait, about an obsessive, anti-social, forum-dwelling music geek (O’Dowd), who neglects his girlfriend (Byrne) while he focuses on a reclusive alt-rock / country singer-songwriter Tucker Crowe (Hawke), whose classic album, Juliet, is being re-released in a stripped-back format (hence the name).
Apparently Tucker’s music in the film has been written by Ryan Adams, Conor Oberst, M Ward, Robyn Hitchcock and others, so I’m actually quite interested to see / hear it.
