I’ve been hearing about how great SMASHED is for awhile now. Unforutantely, there’s been no footage for me to get a taste. Until today that is!
A new clip from the film has Nick Offerman (PARKS & RECREATION) confronting Mary Elizabeth Winstead (SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD) about drinking on the job. I’ve seen the serious side of Offerman before, but not anything significant from Winstead. While checking the film out at Sundance, the one and only Chris Bumbray mentions in his review from January that, “If anything, it’s an absolute tour-de-force for star Mary Elizabeth-Winstead, whose performance as a damaged addict struck me as being even better than Anne Hathaway’s lauded turn in the similar RACHEL GETTING MARRIED which netted her an Oscar nomination.” Mr. Bumbray actually gave the film a 9/10.
I was even more intrigued after the clip, and hope to see a trailer for this soon. Aaron Paul, Octavia Spencer and Megan Mullally also star. No release date as of yet.
“A married couple whose bond is built on a mutual love of alcohol gets their relationship put to the test when the wife decides to get sober.”
