She's baaaaack!
Lindsay Lohan's latest project The Canyons just released a teaser trailer, and from the looks of it, she might have a comeback on her hands!
The movie, from the creators of American Psycho, is written by Bret Easton Ellis and directed by Paul Schrader. The Mean Girls star plays Tara, who "sold her pride for material comfort." Meanwhile, Deen, a former **** star, is touted as a "huge new talent" and "the boy next door gone bad."
"One chance meeting connected to the past unravels all of their lives, resulting in deceit, paranoia, cruel mind games and ultimately violence," reads the press release.
The exquisite weirdness that is The Canyons, the curious new $150,000 feature that now has its first teaser. Described as a “contemporary L.A. noir,” the film boasts the first original screenplay by Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho author and Twitter troll extraordinaire. It’s also the first film in five years directed by Paul Schrader, a fellow iconoclast known for writing some of Martin Scorsese’s best films. The Canyons not only stars Lohan and “female-friendly” **** star Deen—who chronicled the movie’s production on his hilarious, filthy, very **** blog—it also features an extended cameo from director Gus Van Sant, making one of his first appearances in front of the camera.
The movie supposedly chronicles a group of people in their 20s who have a chance encounter linked to their pasts. If the promise of eerie voyeurism and psychosexual exploits lives up to the talent involved, this could be a less thinky (and hotter) version of The Girlfriend Experience. But it’s just as easy to imagine a vapid, depressing exercise in writerly ego and exploitation worked up by two aging provocateurs with a clueless, desperate young cast.
TEASER TRAILER. As those who have been following The Canyons know, we are to a large degree crowd sourced. Fortunately Dan Shulman-Means volunteered to come out of retirement and put together this teaser. It's been a while a while since Dan has worked and it's great to see him in top form!
This teaser was made to resemble thrillers from the 1970's. Two more teasers made to resemble 1950's melodrama and 1930's comedy will be delivered soon.
These teasers are obviously just for fun and I LOVE it.
Can't wait for the movie!!!
.......... i love lindsay tho .. but it looks like it was filmed using a cellphone with a touch of sepia on to it?
