I'm not really sure what in the hell is happening in this trailer, but all I can think is "Jim Sturgess!" Jim is the man, the myth, the legend. He's what Ashton Kutcher could have been, if Ashton hadn't turned into such a douche. Sturgess is one of the few costars who allegedly resisted Kate Bosworth's charms when they filmed 21 together - although there are conflicting reports on that, I love him anyway! Jim has a relatively short acting resume, but he shines in every film he's been cast in to date. And have I mentioned that he's hot? He's someone I'd definitely like to see more of in the future. Speaking of which, here's a brief synopsis of Heartless from Wikipedia:
[Heartless, a film directed by Philip Ridley, premiered on
August 31, 2009 at the London FrightFest Film Festival, a popular horror
film festival. Sturgess appears as Jamie Morgan, a young man whose life has
always been blighted by the large, heart-shaped birthmark on his face and who
sells his soul to the devil. The film is due for release in 2010.]
So the title seems a little schmaltzy, given the background. He has a heart-shaped birthmark - and then he doesn't! Oh well, it doesn't matter - I'm seeing it anyway. Read more details about the flick, via First Showing, for the technicalities. Or screw the deets and just get in line. That's my plan.
