Bradley Cooper is a plagiarist in this trailer for The Words

JoBloJoBlo

Aside from writing here on JoBlo.com, I fancy myself an author of fiction as well. I can relate to Bradley Cooper’s plight in the first half of the trailer for THE WORDS. But, when the twist arrives about halfway through, that is where it gets really interesting.

What would you do if you had the opportunity to pass someone else’s writing off as your own? Especially if it means getting to continue bedding Zoe Saldana?

The trailer for THE WORDS does not give away the framing device as explained in our Sundance review of the movie. That device may turn a lot of viewers off, but based purely on the trailer this looks like an interesting story.

THE WORDS stars Bradley Cooper, Zoe Saldana, Dennis Quaid, Jeremy Irons, and Olivia Wilde. Aren’t Wilde and Saldana enough to make this required viewing?
