This year, the regular and often reliable comedy team of James Franco, Seth Rogen, and Danny McBride will reunite for The Sound and the Fury – but not as you know them.
For those hoping for the spontaneous energy a la Pineapple Express or This is the End, you may exit the trailer with a profound feeling of disappointment – or you may feel that regardless of your expectations. You see, this adaptation of William Faulkner’s seminal novel of the same name isn’t nearly as impressionable as it needs to be, and even from our review it’s clear that the Franco-directed adaptation is one you could easily pass up.
Charting the trials and tribulations faced by the Compsons, a once tight-knit Southern family, The Sound and the Fury is, on paper, an understudy on familial drama and the universal challenges that each of us can relate to in our own unique way.
