Tim Blake Nelson’s all new independent film, Leaves of Grass, stars Ed Norton as both of the Kincaid brothers, identical twins who haven’t seen each other in years. The film, which greatly revolves around the business of growing, selling, and using marijuana, has had a very limited release as of now and will be hitting DVD shelves on October 12th.
But I’m not here to discuss the film, which I have seen, or its release date. I’m here to show you a clip from the film itself where Norton and Norton do a bit of reminiscing after taking a few solid hits of some home grown weed. You can check out the clip after the jump.
Synopsis:
“When Ivy League classics professor Bill Kincaid receives news of the murder of his estranged identical twin brother, Brady (Edward Norton), in a pot deal gone bad, he leaves the world of Northeastern academia to travel back to his home state of Oklahoma. Upon arrival, he finds that reports of his brother’s death are greatly exaggerated, and he’s soon caught up in the dangerous and unpredictable world of drug commerce in the backwaters of the Southwest.
In the process, he reconnects with his eccentric mother (Susan Sarandon), meets a wise and educated young woman who has bypassed academia in favor of the gentler rhythms of life (Keri Russell), and unwittingly helps his troubled brother settle a score with a pernicious drug lord (Richard Dreyfuss) who uses Tulsa, Oklahoma’s small Jewish community for cover.
Leaves of Grass follows a twisting narrative path merging crime drama, drug comedy, classical philosophy and sudden violence in pursuit of answering one of humanity’s oldest questions: What does it truly mean to live a happy and constructive life?”
