Poster for 'The Great Buck Howard'

DateWednesday, January 21, 2009 at 2:20AM
I've heard mixed responses to the new film, The Great Buck Howard, but for several reasons - a list that could effectively begin and end with the name "Malkovich" - I'm still optimistic.

It reminds me of My Favorite Year, in which Peter O'Toole played a swashbuckler with his better days behind him and Mark Linn-Baker the TV variety show writer assigned to look after the drunken old fool. In this case, Colin Hanks is the new personal assistant to The Great Buck Howard (Malkovich), a mentalist who is neither as great as he was nor as he thinks he is.

Here's a new poster from Cinematical for Buck Howard, which may be missing a golden opportunity by landing safely in the PG zone. What good is John Malkovich without an F-bomb?

The Great Buck Howard opens March 20th.
