Fine 319: Boogie Woogie

A short post for today:

Boogie Woogie is an upcoming comedy of manners set in the contemporary London art world, directed by Duncan Ward. I can only imagine what antics will ensue in this all-too-easy target. Starring a huge ensemble, including Gillian Anderson, Alan Cumming, Heather Graham, Christopher Lee, Stellan Skarsgard and Amanda Seyfried.

UPDATE (April 24th, 2010)

The reviews are in... and they are not favourable.

Aaron Hills of the Village Voice: "Director Duncan Ward tries way too hard to nail a way too easy target in his sub-Altman ensemble spoof of the overpriced, overhyped, overly pretentious modern-art scene."

Joe Neumaler of the New York Daily News: "This watery art-world satire is a perfect example of savvy people working together on something with no center of gravity, so nothing pays off."

Ouch.
