The mold of the genre is rarely broken in film. Once in a great while, there is a film that comes along that presents itself as a possible game changer. In the case of writer (and lead actress) Zoe Kazan, whose family tree has a great several writers on its branches, her first feature titled Ruby Sparks leaves something to be desired, if only for the fact that it’s really not as game-changing as the premise perhaps alludes to."
A mash-up of romantic fantasy, meta-fiction and magical realism, Ruby Sparks is proof that good things do come in small packages.
Ambitious and artful, it’s both a breakout and a comeback, as screenwriter/star Zoe Kazan’s first script underpins an overdue return for Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, the husband-and-wife directing team behind 2006’s indie hit Little Miss Sunshine.
How many films do we have to look forward to in the remaining months of 2012? A lot.
Because movies ultimately start with a writer, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that some of the best screenwriters — as well as some terrible ones — love injecting their own craft into a screenplay.
The premise perhaps alludes to.
