Apr 30 2007Aronofsky Writing Noah Movie That Probably Won't be Super Pretentious
I put this chick's vagina in a movie once, I told her it would be arty. And by "arty" I meant "awesome."
In an interview with The Guardian, Darren Aronofsky (Pi, Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain) said his next project will be a story about Noah, that dude from the bible.
"Noah was the first person to plant vineyards and drink wine and get drunk," he says admiringly. "It's there in the Bible - it was one of the first things he did when he reached land. There was some real survivor's guilt going on there. He's a dark, complicated character."So basically, expect Noah to drink wine until one of his arms falls off and he ends up going butt to butt with some animals or something. And we'll all learn a valuable lesson about the dangers of alcohol.
And btw? They're already making this movie, Darren, it's called Evan Almighty.

Soo... Noah had survivors guilt and the best thing he could come up with was planting some grapevines, waiting years while they grew, making some wine from them, waiting for years while it matured THEN getting drunk.
Surely there are ways to forget things faster than that?
