Wood, And Other Mediums

Lot of Dave Eggers buzz these days because of his collaboration with Spike Jonze on the forthcoming Where The Wild Things Are, but also theatre-bound is Away We Go, a movie about pregnancy he wrote with his better half, Vendela Vida. I went to BAM for a screening last night and spent much of the evening feeling like an asshat for accepting comp tix to a movie that was, unbeknownest to me, a benefit for 826. MOVING ON, the flick was good; the duo managed to somehow knead together the best elements of a Wes Anderson movie, Garden State and a chick flick . Afterward was an interesting Q & A with Eggers, Vida and lead John Krasinski, during which the screenwriting lovebirds said this.
