So What Is This About Again?

I am hearting the vintage feel of the poster for Lee DanielsThe Paperboy, but I’m also a bit confused by the look of it.

Front and center are Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman, riding a classic car, with Kidman shooting Efron a slightly flirting look and with the young star looking all muscle-y.

Is she taking him back to her place in Courgarville as her cuckold husband (Matthew McConaughey) feels all left and whatnot in the background?

And what is up with John Cusack and that look? Is he the assassin McConaughey sends after Efron and Kidman?

And why is this called The Paperboy?

Well, that’s because the movie is adapted from the Pete Dexter novel about a reporter and his brother and their attempt to get an innocent man off death row in the ’60s.

So none of my theories hold water.

Oh, well...I still wanna see this one. Soon.
