It’s called Ticket to Ride. And it’s a coming-of-age comedy about a college grad, Ryden Malby (Alexis Bledel), who is forced to move back into her childhood home with her eccentric family while she attempts to find a job, a guy, and a direction for her life. The film will being shooting next month (in December), and I expect it in theaters sometime in 2009.
In the meantime, I’m looking forward The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants II, to be released August 8, 2008.

Alexis Bledel’s latest film I’m Reed Fish, also starring Jay Baruchel as the title character Reed Fish, actually came out on DVD on September 4. Netflix even sent me a copy, which I enjoyed immensely. But Amazon still has the I’m Reed Fish DVD scheduled for release this coming week, on Tuesday. Whatever.
In any case, if you haven’t seen this yet, I think it’s well worth watching. (As if you cared about my opinion.) You may have to watch it twice to catch all the nuances. But if you keep in mind that it’s not a romance story, you’ll probably enjoy it more the first time. Click to continue »
