The Lone Ranger

There is a film coming out in the new year that I must see ASAP after it opens. 

That’s The Place Beyond the Pines, a.k.a. the one for which director Derek Cianfrance reunited with his Blue Valentine star, Ryan Gosling.

It is also the one in which the Gos shares the screen with Bradley Cooper, and the one where he met gf Eva Mendes (but I’ll just pretend that never happened and that he’s still available and questioning)

I understand it’s best not to know much about the films plot as we prepare for its arrival, but, this is me – I gotta say som’in’.

Gosling plays Luke, a heavily tatted, bleached blond motorcycle stunt-rider who turns to a life of crime. Cooper is a cop hot on his heels, while Mendes portrays the mother of the infant son Luke didnt know he had. 

Some folks absolutely have loved the films performances; others say they saw right through its indie-esque pretenses.

No matter, Ill be there on opening night, or shortly thereafter, with bells and whistles and a box of tissues

Its Ryan Gosling, people! Did you see what he looks like in the darn thing. No? Just look right.
