it's getting great reviews across the board, here's one that spotlight's Adam's performance.

Here's the best movie to premiere at this year's Toronto International Film Festival: "While We're Young," Noah Baumbach's "Frances Ha" follow-up

...

Not that Stiller is the only thing going on here: Driver, Watts, Seyfried and Charles Grodin are pretty remarkable, too. (That Adam Driver is going to have a long career.) Then there's Ryan Serhant and Adam Horovitz. You know them better as that guy from "Million Dollar Listing" and Ad-Rock from Beasties Boys.

Let's start with Horovitz, who plays such a perfect embodiment of average, upper-middle class dads that you might not connect the dots right away between his character and Ad-Rock. Which is likely the point. In a movie about adults refusing to accept that they've become adults, what better way to illustrate that overarching theme than by having Ad-Rock wear khakis and carry baby in a sling? Horovitz's character has got to fight for the right to wake up multiple times a night to feed his newborn.

But if Horovitz is a subtle marvel, Serhant is the movie equivalent of street construction on a quiet morning...

Long Burn The Fire. Rest In Peace Adam.

This is going to be awesome.



"A lot of record companies look at the numbers and they'll be like, 'Your first record sold 5 million and your second record sold only 800,000. What happened? You guys fell off, I think the band all feels that the record did really well. Most musicians I grew up playing music with would probably shoot me if I ever complained about selling 800,000 records."

it got picked up at the Toronto fest by A24 Studios, so I imagine they will whip one up pretty soon.

he is the former VP of publicity for ThinkFilm and was behind the AIFST campaign.

It seems like The Guardian is a big fan of the movie as well, and writes some fine words about the casting of Adam.


http://www.theguardian.com/film/2014...ch-adam-driver
... Baumbach’s work feels as acute and timely as they come. His casting choices are razor sharp, Driver and Stiller both in their own ways emblematic of their generations; likewise the choice of Beastie Boy Adam Horovitz as a stay-at-home dad who, with his wife, is forever encouraging his Jamie and Cornelia to have children.
...
But it’s churlish to pick holes in what is an almost perfect 90-minute hit of confident and inspired comedic commentary. Baumbach has made his most mainstream movie to date; it demands as wide a watch as possible.

Horovitz and Stiller are a great combo! You know guys I am excited to see Adrock getting back into film. I always thought he did a pretty good job.



I'll never turn back 'cause that's the way I've got to live.....

I'd really like to see a return to that character. A "where is he now?" type of thing. Maybe a miniseries or trilogy.
