+ jeezopete Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) This actually looks really good. I love Jim Parsons and Sally Field, so I'll probably hit the theater when it opens. Can't remember the last movie I saw in a theater. Just found out this about the movie: Spoiler Alert is an upcoming American biographical romantic drama film directed by Michael Showalter, from a screenplay written by David Marshall Grant and Dan Savage, based on the memoir Spoiler Alert: The Hero Dies by Michael Ausiello. The film stars Jim Parsons as Ausiello, along with Ben Aldridge and Sally Field. The film is scheduled to be released by Focus Features on December 2, 2022.

Rod Hagen Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I go to the movies at least once a week, and the studio is pushing this movie fairly, and surprisingly, hard. The trailer runs pretty much before every movie. It looks awful. I hope it does well. thomas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw her in 1968 in an original Tennessee Williams play. And she Co started in a not very successful musical with the legendary Ethel Merman concerning a take off on Grace Kelly's wedding in Monaco. The musical was "Happy Hunting" If she wasn't great Merman would have fired her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all verklempt watching the trailer from just finishing the memoir. It was a pretty tearful read. Those two seem perfect as Mike and Kit. I like Jim Parsons. Not sure if I want to sit through the same sad story though. Kind of like Holding the Man. A good play, but so sad I skipped the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc in Calif Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) It's usually Americanized and mispronounced! But that's the beauty of English. The word verklempt is in most English dictionaries as an English word. Edited January 7, 2023 by Marc in Calif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Njguy2 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thanks @samhexum for the heads up on Peacock. Happy I didn't have to pay to see this in the theater. Watched this over the weekend, (fast forwarded through some sections) definitely a sad tear jerker ending. I would have preferred a different actor than Jim Parson's for Sebastian's role.

I did finally see it. I liked it the same way as Bros. Some of it I liked a lot. But yeah, the memoir is such a good read, a tough act to follow.
