A poster for the upcoming Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts movie LARRY CROWNE, has just made it up onto Joblo.com.
Now, I know absolutely nothing about this movie, but this poster makes it look just awful. I’m not engaged at all by this. Let’s see if the official synopsis will help…
Until he was downsized, affable, amiable Larry Crowne (Hanks) was a superstar team leader at the big-box company where he’s worked since his time in the Navy. Underwater on his mortgage and unclear on what to do with his suddenly free days, Larry heads to his local college to start over. There he becomes part of a colorful community of outcasts, also-rans and the overlooked all trying to find a better future for themselves…often moving around town in a herd of scooters. In his public-speaking class, Larry develops an unexpected crush on his teacher Mercedes Tainot (Roberts), who has lost as much passion for teaching as she has for her husband. The simple guy who has every reason to think his life has stalled will come to learn an unexpected lesson: when you think everything worth having has passed you by, you just might discover your reason to live.
Hmm. This one opens in the USA on 1st June. Still not sure, but we never pre-judge movies here on THN, so we’ll wait until we’ve seen it to pass judgement.
Here’s the poster.
