Near the top of my least anticipated list is 'The Beaver', a Jodie Foster directed movie starring Mel Gibson as a depressed CEO who decides to only communicate via a beaver puppet. According to SlashFilm, the script provides this introduction of the beaver: "ANGLE ON the garbage reveals a half buried BEAVER PUPPET, its large plastic eyes staring out from under some refuse. Walter squints, then reaches for it. It turns out to have a large bushy tail and big happy grin. He holds it up. He and the beaver seem to stare blankly at one another for a long time, as if each reading a story in the other’s eyes." At this point, any Oscar talk is probably premature. |
