    The latest from Alexander Payne (writing & directing), and revolves around an experiment where a group of people have themselves miniaturised to reduce their carbon footprint. Very intriguing, and original premise, could be one to keep an eye on.

    I wonder whether the makers will try and get the physics right? Thanks to surface tension, people that small would be able to walk on water ... but might drown while taking a bath. :eek:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Trailer #2, which does give away some early plot points:

    I have seen it advertised in the cinema a few times. Looks good, interesting and maybe even funny too.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
