HOLLYWOOD – November 2, 2105 (Gephardt Daily) — Paramount Pictures just released its latest trailer for the new animated film “Anomalisa” starring Jennifer Jason Leigh and Tom Noonan.
Synopsis:
Michael Stone, husband, father and respected author of “How May I Help You Help Them?” is a man crippled by the mundanity of his life. On a business trip to Cincinnati, where he’s scheduled to speak at a convention of customer service professionals, he checks into the Fregoli Hotel.
There, he is amazed to discover a possible escape from his desperation in the form of an unassuming Akron baked goods sales rep, Lisa, who may or may not be the love of his life.
A beautifully tender and absurdly humorous dreamscape, from the brilliant minds of Charlie Kaufman (“SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK”) and Duke Johnson (“Community” episode, ‘Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas’), this stop-motion animation wonder features the vocal cast of Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tom Noonan and David Thewlis and a stirring strings-based score by Carter Burwell.
