Well, after a litany of delays it looks like I Love You Phillip Morris (Roadside Attractions, December 3) is really, truly, finally coming out. And no, that wasn’t a gay joke. The furiously maintained high-wire vulgar insolence of Bad Santa earns writer-directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa a lifetime ticket from me, as long as it’s not a Cats & Dogs movie. Their directorial follow-up, Crazy, Stupid, Love, has already started test screening locally, and will be nipping on the heels of this film with an April 2011 release via Warner Bros., despite shooting almost two years later. Phillip Morris, meanwhile, looks like a romp; I can’t wait.
