Paper Hearts
We learn of a new Michael Cera comedy called Paper Hearts today. It is scheduled to appear at next years Sundance film fest and we get the following details thanks to the hilarity caves of yahoo:
Look at most movie databases, and you’ll find no mention of a new film called “Paper Hearts.” “It’s pretty much ‘the one,’ at least as far as festival programmers are concerned,” one seller said.
Those familiar with “Hearts” describe it as part documentary, part scripted comedy, centering on the real-life relationship between Cera and his girlfriend, Charlyne Yi, another member of the Apatow acting crew (she played the pigtailed stoner in “Knocked Up”). As in Cera’s recent “Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist,” music is a key element.
So this is an exaggerated day to day between Cera and his girlfriend… it could be good. If the chemistry between the two is humorous, I can see this being quite funny. I like the deadpan stylings of Cera and am curious to see if he will play it as straight in this film, where he plays himself.
I’m curious if he is naturally “like that” or merely plays a subdued character on the screen. In real life I bet Cera’s as cantankerous as Belushi (RIP).
International friends - what do you think about this one?
I think this is too much for someone not that important, who cares about his life? This dude’s expendable, he’s not a bad actor nor great one, just some bastard lucky enough to get into Hollywood.
I’d be curious to see Robert De Niro’s day to day life (to see if he acts like a mobster all the time) or see Mel Gibson (to see if he’s really an alcoholic anti-semite now and then). Now that’d be something.
Jim Belushi is dead!?!
John Belushi’s dead
He’s dating that girl? lol
I wonder if he will play the exact same character as always.
Same here. Hope he saves his usual character for Arrested Development. Until then, I hope his roles with go against type, especially when he does Scott Pilgrim.
Speaking about Sundance, how come no one has mentioned “Black Dynamite”?

I know you, Doug. You will love this shit. I already do. ^_^
I love them both. And why do people harp on him playing the same character? Could someone tell me when Jack Nicholson has been humble, or Al Pacino subtle? Some “greats” have a thing they do, and he could be one. Criminey — if he has to get busy “proving himself”, I dread the ego-driven, Oscar-joke-attempt type performaces we’ve seen others attempt. Be glad this generation has produced these two quirky funny kids who are giving to comedy -not borrowing from it.
