Remember that movie Weird Science where those two nerds willed that hot woman with the accent into existence via their circa 1989 computer software? Well imagine there was just one of them and he was less horny teenager, more tormented writer and it was a lil more 2012 than 89 and you might just have Ruby Sparks.
From the same directors as the indie hit Little Miss Sunshine, Ruby Sparks tells the story of Calvin (Paul Dano), a struggling novelist who can’t quite find anything he wants to write. Encouraged by his shrink (Elliott Gould) to start creating his dream girl, Calvin’s reality is upended when Ruby (screenwriter and Dano’s off-screen girlfriend Zoe Kazan) suddenly manifests in his apartment, in love with him and precisely as he’s written her.
The film is opening at Classic Cinema at Elsternwick and to celebrate before the 7pm screening on Fri September 21st there will be pre-drinks and pizza for all. Best of all we have two double passes to give away! Even more best of all, this would probably make the best ‘first date’ scenario ever and you don’t even need to spend money on it.
