Trust the Man is an hilarious drama about the crazy things people will do for love. Bart Freundlich’s latest film boasts a phenomenal cast - Julianne Moore, David Duchovny, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Billy Crudup, Ellen Barkin, Bob Balaban and Eva Mendes among them - in a fantastic romance for the twenty-first century.
We are in present-day New York among the comfortably successful leisure class. Rebecca (Moore) is an actress; a little bit uptight to begin with, she is crushed to discover that her marriage may be falling apart. Her husband Tom (Duchovny), a die-hard porn addict, takes things one step further when he begins an affair, leaving long-suffering Rebecca to pick up the pieces of their relationship. Rebecca’s brother Tobey (Crudup), meanwhile, is in a long-term relationship with Elaine (Gyllenhaal) that has begun to turn sour. Both couples are spoiled and bratty, to varying degrees, and years of secrets and lies have left them all filled with resentment. A wild flurry of adulterous encounters and trial separations, adventures in dating and even a bout of stalking ensue as the two desperate men realize they must do everything they possibly can - moral and immoral, legal and otherwise - to prove to their women that they deserve to be taken back.
Throughout wild hijinks and heart-stopping tenderness, side-splitting humour and harrowing pathos, Trust the Man’s cast is mesmerizing. Duchovny delivers the best performance of his film career while Moore - certainly among the most talented actresses of her generation - is as luminous as we have come to expect. And a scene in which Barkin’s character Norah puts the moves on Gyllenhaal’s Elaine is a perfectly executed, miniature comic masterpiece. Shot by acclaimed cinematographer Tim Orr (who shot Dan Harris’s 2004 Gala presentation Imaginary Heroes and all of David Gordon Green’s features), Trust the Man is an energetic and cutting work that calls to mind Woody Allen’s Husbands and Wives and Annie Hall. Sure to be one of the most memorable date movies of the year, it is a spectacular ode to love and the distance we will go to get it - and to keep it.

ということでバートお得意の人間ドラマ系の模様です。このレビューではかなり褒めていますね。 あとWanting MooreのところでFox Searchlightが「Trust the Man」を買ったとの話が紹介されています。北米での公開の他に世界規模では日本もリストに含まれているようなので、日本公開にますます期待大。その際にはどーぞきちんと全国公開して下さいませ。
A Fox Searchlight spokesperson confirmed that 20th Century Fox's specialty films division is the "proud owner" of the absorbing relationship study, starring Freudlich's real-life partner and longtime film collaborator Julianne Moore as well as David Duchovny, Billy Crudup, Maggie Gyllenhall, Eva Mendes and Ellen Barkin. Searchlight snatched North American rights and a long list of international territories, including Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, Benelux, China, Columbia, France, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, Switzerland, Germany and Taiwan.
"Trust the Man" is one of the films from Sidney Kimmel Entertainment that has been up for sale in Toronto. SKE's other film "Neverwas" met with a less enthusiastic response, but at least one acquisitions exec predicted it should sell as well, although probably for a lower figure. CAA repped the "Trust" sale for client Freundlich, while negotiations were handled for Fox Searchlight by executive vice president Joey DeMarco and senior vice president of acquisitions Tony Safford and for SKE by president Jim Tauber.
Tauber, who was exec vp of Acquisitions and Co-Productions at 20th Century Fox, working with all divisions of the studio before leaving to join SKE in July, said, "I'm thrilled by the sale and thrilled to be in business with Fox Searchlight."
