It sounds potentially hilarious. I wonder if it is straightforward or filmed mockumentary style?

If no one dies, then what's the point?

Or do they die in hilarious ways in the musical comedy?

This is going to be great. I adore Skylar and Phoebe. Skylar is hilarious in the trailer and reviews of the movie back at Sundance all mentioned his performance. And it's coming out on my birthday!

I walked in during this one during the previews for Forgetting Sarah Marshall today and was like, "Is that Skylar Astin?" It looks funny.

While the movie looks fun, has anybody read FORTINBRAS by Lee Blessing? It's sort of a Hamlet 2. I would love to do this in rep with Hamlet sometime. Just my thoughts.
