2012 Sundance Predictions: Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris’ He Loves Me

Will Fox Searchlight add a title from their 2012 inventory to the Sundance line-up? We’ve got a pair of Searchlight items (see our number #37 pick) that fit the Park City premiere mold with a slight advantage going to He Loves Me – the sophomore film from the team of the 2006 Sundance break out hit Little Miss Sunshine. If included, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris’ latest would most certainly grab a Premieres category showing.

#28. He Loves Me – Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris

Will Fox Searchlight add a title from their 2012 inventory to the Sundance line-up? We’ve got a pair of Searchlight items (see our number #37 pick) that fit the Park City premiere mold with a slight advantage going to He Loves Me – the sophomore film from the team of the 2006 Sundance break out hit Little Miss Sunshine. If included, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris’ latest would most certainly grab a Premieres category showing.

Gist: Scripted by Zoe Kazan, this centers on Calvin (Dano) is a young novelist who achieved phenomenal success early in his career but is now struggling with his writing – as well as his romantic life. While suffering from writer’s block, is told to write the woman he thinks will love him. He winds up creating Ruby and willing her into existence, “Weird Science” style. When Calvin finds Ruby (Kazan), in the flesh, sitting on his couch about a week later, he is completely flabbergasted that his words have turned into a living, breathing person.

Producers: Bona Fide Productions’ Albert Berger and Ron Yerxa
