In the tradition of Lost In Translation and The Squid and the Whale, PAPER MAN is a wonderfully funny story about people trying desperately to find the same joy in real life as they do in their imagination. Golden Globe? and Tony? nominee Jeff Daniels stars as Richard Dunn, a novelist with writer's block isolated in Long Island by his sensible, surgeon wife (Emmy? winner Lisa Kudrow) in order to get cracking on the new book thaat will revive his career. But Richard isn't totally alone: along for the ride is a precocious local teen (Emma Stone in a breakout performance) with issues of her own whose refreshing candor liftts him out of his stupor. And of course, Captain Excellent (Ryan Reynolds), Richard's closest confidante since childhood is never far, always encouraging him to grow up even if it that means leaving him behind. Funny, moving and true, PAPER MAN is a genuinely offbeat gem.
