Check out this trailer for the upcoming Spike Jonze film Where the While Things Are, based on the enduring childrens’ book. Jonze has made some pretty kick-ass movies and music videos - my personal faves are Being John Malkovich and Adaptation and the Fatboy Slim video. He’s also the co-creator of Jackass, a show that inspired millions of young idiots to hurt themselves on camera. Ahh, natural selection, you’re a heartless bitch.

Anyway, Jonze’s take on this story has been controversial from the beginning. But based on the trailer, it’s going to be another brilliant piece of movie magic. I’m going to read the story to my kids again tonight.
