From Indie Promise to Corporate Schmaltz

Posted by John Constantine

Way back in November, Variety mentioned that Robert Duvall had signed on for 2008 holiday release Four Christmases. It will also star Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon. Why are we bringing you this news now? It has come to our attention that Four Christmases will be directed by one of 2007’s indie darlings, Seth Gordon. Gordon’s King of Kong was much loved by more than a few over here at the ‘Grab and we are much dismayed to hear that Gordon’s next effort will be in that most dreaded of genres, the Christmas movie. Say it ain’t so, Seth. Say it ain’t so!
