Movie Media: Fierce People - Poster, Trailer

This looks like it could be fun if a little weird. I also think it has the potential to go completely flying off the rails. As I watched the trailer it reminded me of a combination of The Nanny Diaries and Running With Scissors. It takes a young guy who goes off to meet his father, doing an anthropological study of a tribe in South America, but ends up with a wealthy if eccentric family. The cast includes Donald Sutherland, Kristen Stewart, Elizabeth Perkins, Chris Evans, and Anton Yelchin. The film has been making the rounds since 2005, but will finally see a theatrical release on September 14, 2007. It was directed by Griffin Dunne from a screenplay by Dirk Wittenborn, based off his novel.
