The Michaels Angarano & Cera Movie


Long-time MNPP fave Michael Angarano wrote and directed and starred in a movie called Sacramento that just premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival -- it co-stars Michael Cera, Kristen Stewart, and Angarano's real-life partner (and PEN15 star) Maya Erskine, and its plot perfectly fits the description of approximately one million other movies in that it is about two estranged friends at a cross-roads in their lives going on a road trip to discover yadda yadda. But even if the tropes it traffics in are old, Angarano went and made a very lovely little movie anyway -- read my review of Sacramento over at Pajiba. I love all of these actors and the movie really feels genuine and true and it is a very nice way to spend ninety minutes of your time. What more can you ask for? Michael Angarano wearing a top-hat and nothing else -- sure! But I guess he can't do that every time out. I guess! (Find somewhere to do that again in your next one, Michael.)

I remember when Michael guest starred on Will & Grace

Yes! He was Jack's son on W&G. He was great then too. I like the pic, very simple, but sexy.
I scanned your review on Pajiba, enough to know it's definitely something I want to see.
