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!

    I’ve read somewhere that director/writer Tim Blake Nelson didn’t have anyone but Norton in mind when he wrote his film. That’s understandable. EN is the master of duality. Regardless of whether this film is going to be very impressive, I’d still watch it cz I’ve seen EN in not-so-impressive films but I haven’t seen him perform less than brilliant in any of his films.

    I am still waiting for the release of “Leaves Of Grass” as it is already Jan. 2010. I thought it was going to be released on Christmas Day 2009. I checked all of the major cities like NY. and Los Angeles but there were no showings of this movie. Edward Norton is my favorite actor/activist. I have seen all of his movies. I especially liked “The Illusionist” and “The Painted Veil”. I saw those movies over and over again. Impatiently waiting now for “Leaves Of Grass”. I also know that in the spring he will be appearing in a movie with Robert DeNiro(forgot the title). Please let me know the status of “Leaves Of Grass” and when it will finally be released. Thanks so much. Stephanie
