The Paperboy
A sweaty, swampy, lurid & wildly entertaining southern gothic tale from Oscar-nominated Precious director Lee Daniels that’s packed with pulp excess and a once-in-a-lifetime stacked cast relishing their roles. Things get complicated when Miami Times investigative reporters Ward Jansen (Matthew McConaughey) & Yardley Acheman (David Oyelowo), Jansen’s younger brother (Zac Efron), and a death-row groupie (Nicole Kidman) work to exonerate a convicted killer (John Cusack).
“The Paperboy is great trash, and as Pauline Kael told us, the movies are so seldom great art that if we can’t appreciate great trash, we might as well not go at all. This is a humid, deep South wallow in raunch” – Roger Ebert
