Along came Polley

Sarah Polley starred in Go, one of the best underrated films of all time for my money, but you probably know her from the Dawn of the Dead remake. She looks like this.
Really, that's all irrelevant, because she's a director now. Ya-boo! As you may be aware, females can, in fact, be directors, a fact that Hollywood is slowly realizing after a short century. Whenever a promising young female talent comes up behind the camera, I want to promote that extensively to remind studios that said cameras aren't operated by use of the dingus. So let's all get the excitement rolling for Take This Waltz, which sounds damn good. It's about a woman who has lotsa affairs and realizes she's addicted to the honeymoon phase of relationships. The script was on the black list (the list of hot scripts no one has made into movies yet), and the movie will star this guy:
This awesome girl (Michelle Williams)
And supposedly one more "star to be named later" to round out the cast. It's unknown whether Rogen will play the hubbie that gets cheated on or the guy doing the cheating. All that's known is that Williams will be forced to pretend to want Seth Rogen (I kid). Williams has quietly turned into a bad-ass actress, and I'm excited to see this combination of great script, promising young (FEMALE!) director, and talented young actors. Why, it's almost as though quality is enough of a reason to be excited for a film beyond hype and shenanigans (oh, how I loathe shenanigans).
