George Clooney and Cate Blanchett in The Good German

GeorgeClooney.jpgYou know, I’m still not sure how good an actorGeorge Clooney is, as I haven’t really seen anything more of him than is ER persona. You know, head tilted to the side and down slightly, look up with raised eyebrows, smile ever so slightly and open the mouth. That’s the thing that drove me mad in ER, he would just keep doing it to show varying degrees of emotions, and I keep seeing it in all his films. Still, he’s a huge success, and I’m not.

His latest venture looks set for more of the same, and he’s managing to get every possible scenario covered in this war-peace-love-murder-mystery-thriller movie. Coming Soon warn us of the coming movie:

The Good German, a romantic thriller set during WWII, has attracted the interest of George Clooney and Cate Blanchett. If the talks work out, Clooney will play an American journalist sent to cover the Allied summit meeting that will decide the future of Germany after WWII. Instead, he uses it as an opportunity to look for a lost love, and he gets caught up in a murder mystery. Clooney is co-producing the film with his Section Eight partner Steven Soderbergh, who will also direct the film…

It’s got the full stock of good talent in there, and boy can Cate Blanchett act…and look great! Soderbergh hasn’t fallen short of turning out a good movie yet, so there’s a lot to look forward to in this, even if you’re not a Clooney fan.
