Today I was reading the LewRockwell.com blog and came across a posting on December 5 simply titled Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster in ‘The Beaver’. No other explanation. It included this YouTube trailer for the film.
I don't watch many movies but thought this one looked pretty interesting.
I learned that The Beaver is an upcoming drama movie based on an original script by screenwriter Kyle Killen. The film is directed by Jodie Foster and stars Mel Gibson and Foster. The Beaver follows a depressed CEO of a toy company (Gibson) who dons a beaver handpuppet to better communicate with his wife (Foster) and his two sons. The script by Killen topped the 2008 Blacklist, a ranking of the best unproduced screenplays. Brendon Connelly of SlashFilm called the screenplay "one of the few very best screenplays [he has] ever read."
