Dollywood

I recently posted about love dolls taking over Japan — and now they're about to take over the silver screen. From one of the writers of Six Feet Under (my favorite show of all time) comes the film Lars and the Real Girl, starring Ryan Gosling, Emily Mortimer and Paul Shneider. The film, scheduled for release in the US this week, is about a "lovable introvert" named Lars who "meets" a love doll on the Internet and proceeds to make a life with her in his small town. An emotional journey for Lars and the people around him ensues.

My interest is piqued. How about yours?  Check out the trailer:
