Anand Tucker Lakes A LeapBy Katey Rich: 2008-11-24 10:27:51
Anand Tucker’s directing career has been unpredictable, though usually worth watching, One of his first films was the critically lauded Hilary and Jackie, which earned Oscar nominations for both its actresses, and then he veered off to the Steve Martin romantic comedy Shopgirl, which was cute if a little creepy. After his last film, And When Did You Last See Your Father?, dealt with father and son relationships, he’ll be back in the world of women with his next project, Leap Year.Amy Adams is already set to star in the romantic comedy, which Variety says is about a woman who travels to Dublin to propose to her boyfriend on Leap Day, Feburary 29. Apparently Irish tradition says a man can’t turn down a marriage proposal made on Leap Day, which means Adams’s character is either very doubtful that her intended will say yes, or a crazed stalker. Why else would you need to guarantee the man in question won’t say no? The Irish tradition is a cute idea, but it seems a pretty flimsy basis for a movie. Of course, so did Shopgirl, and people liked that one a lot. And Adams is a talented performance who can make a concept even as dubious as Enchanted feel winning, so this movie, however cutesy and weird it is, is probably headed for success.
