Ruby Sparks

Description

Paul Dano (There Will Be Blood) reunites with his Little Miss Sunshine directors for this urbane comedy in which he plays a writer who’s blocked until he creates character Ruby Sparks (Zoe Kazan). Utterly inspired, he’s afraid he’s fallen in love with a character. Then: she turns up in his apartment.

 

What’s more, he has the ability to change her moods and limit her actions just by writing about it... A sophisticated and imaginative fable about romance and the creative process, Ruby Sparks is a very beguiling film.

 

“A sleek, beautifully written and acted romantic comedy that glides down to earth in a gently satisfying soft landing.” Stephen Holden, The New York Times


  “An engagingly off-kilter love story of a writer, the girl of his dreams and the power of his pen.”
Betsy Sharkey, The Los Angeles Times

“Ruby Sparks is honest, deep and true.” Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
