This is one Mel Gibson film I am actually very interested in seeing. The Beaver which also stars Jodie Foster and Jennifer Lawrence, looks to have potential to be a great independent drama/comedy this summer. I don’t think it will be as comedic as say Cedar Rapids, but from the trailers I have seen it looks to be entertaining none the less
A brief synopsis:
Synopsis: Two-time Academy Award winner Jodie Foster directs and co-stars with two-time Academy Award winner Mel Gibson in THE BEAVER – an emotional story about a man on a journey to re-discover his family and re-start his life.
Plagued by his own demons, Walter Black was once a successful toy executive and family man who now suffers from depression. No matter what he tries, Walter can’t seem to get himself back on track…until a beaver hand puppet enters his life.
Below I have included the latest international poster for the film, which is a bit strange looking but fitting for the film.
The Beaver opens in select theaters May 20, 2011
