LEAVES OF GRASS
Plot:
“Bill Kincaid, an Ivy League classics professor, returns to rural Oklahoma to bury his dangerously brilliant identical twin brother who had remained in their native state to grow hydroponic pot. Leaves of Grass is a fast-paced comic film that contrasts two distinct approaches to life. Featuring Edward Norton in the role of each twin.”

Director Tim Blake Nelson said about his movie Leaves of Grass:

“”Leaves of Grass is about the unpredictable journey of a guy who learns that you really can’t exert control over your own life.”"

This remark is the opposite of the very tenets of Fight Club, but Edward Norton still manages to deliver a great performance in the movie Leaves of Grass: he must have a dual soul!

The movie Leaves of Grass will be released on December 25, 2009.

Edward Norton is the perfect for such dual roles (just think about Fight Club or Hulk). So no wonder that Director Tim Blake Nelson hired him for the lead role in Leaves of Grass!

Here below a first look at Edward Norton in the movie Leaves of Grass, in which he plays the role of twins:

I think Edward Norton had no problem playing a dual role as the two identical twin brothers (one of whom is an Ivy League philosophy professor and the other is a brilliant marijuana growing career criminal): he’s got the spirit of Fight Club and has been able to tame the green beast Hulk after all!
